Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

You are here: Home / The Daily Pose / So it finally looks like something…..

March 4, 2021

So it finally looks like something…..

………Santos will remove and stretch the grey vinyl over the shell today but you get the idea what it’s gonna look like.  Another MacDaddy dash……..Today we ride!   Mutcedes is all loaded up with a fresh roller 455 motor with FiTech….. It’s been a few motors since we’ve had the chance to drive our motor stand but I’m told today it will be let loose again on the streets……stay tuned.

Actually one being tested, another motor heads to our machinist Mike.  We break the motor down hereat the shop then load up the pieces for a trip to Mike’s new placeMike has retired after decades building performance motors his shop is closed and has has moved all his equipment to his own personal shopwhich he will now only do stuff he wants to do……..  That means we were his last build at his shop and his first build at his new digs…..good to have him back on duty……….Check out this original black water holding tank.  Long ago the strap cut into the tank.  And this patch held……amazing using wood and some sort of glueIt will get its knew tank……..

Ok , we’re getting busy….i need to get in Frey…….see ya tomorrow
