Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

January 7, 2022

(Updated) Real time reporting…… 25 miles on that movie motor and it scheduled to drive it up next week…………..

Now it’s gotta come out and the next motor and tranny is set for run in.

one more run before the fun starts………one nebulous perk working here is getting to ride in Mutcedes…….zoom in on the new guts face………its one of the reasons to have this!  Ah but now let’s get to it!

In onto our 2 post lift put there for just such an occasion……..and they said it was a waste of money buying that used 2 post lift for a motorhome shop!Normally, to prep a motorhome to this point to yank the motor takes some work…..here we are, ready to go……..3 guys start at it…..the fuel tank is first to unholy……and the guys may find some other place for a fuel cell.  That tank fit but….well…..lets see if we can do betterwith the tank out of the way and tires off, the entire drive train is just sitting there on a cradle!

……..  This is why Mutcedes was put together……making it a vital stage of our drive train renewal process…..

And coming in this morning, where are the guys in getting the next drive train ready to test?

Lights off while closed, oh yeah….im here!Look at that…..awesome, the red rag can (OSHA required) with the sop-up rags secured and a cleaned work spacethe drive train outparts stowed away, bolts in the holes cut in the bumper for them and the motor on the cherry picker in the corner……..If you’ve ever worked in a shop, it’s not professional unless they clean up after a project!  And we’re gonna KEEP things clean………………….well there it is……..

Talk to ya later……
