Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

You are here: Home / The Daily Pose / The ✌ Co-op: My new world………..

The ✌ Co-op: My new world………..

……JayGee has become a comfortable friend.  Move into your motorhome in your driveway…. You will have a smaller carbon footprint!  Janie is provisioning me from our clean space at her families “Headquarters” in Winter Park where she is caring for her Mom.  At 87 getting thru illness we must keep her protected.  Hey, I’m fine here at the shop with JayGee and Ralphand as far as keeping busy?  What a great place for me to isolate in place………i mean if I have to pick the place……..

Walking thru a quiet shop, Lincoln’s coach is frozen in place on the liftJason got the quad bag rear suspension on before we stopped work on itJD……. You got to be our lab rat on the new off shelf aluminum radiator packageThe new AC evaporator there in front of the off shelf plastic side can aluminum radiator….here’s a look from the top sideand of the new in dash AC/heater unit and below that the new Serpantine belt systemthe guys were deep in this project when the call cameand there’s Summers coach next in line his aluminum radiator already mounted …….  And the beat goes on. …….🎶……….. One of our workers, Robert, is also social distancing at the shop in his orange GMC living quartersthere’s JayGee down the row and Brian there in the Dodge hi top van……just a big happy family all staying socially apart but together……we have more 50amp plugs so cone and hold the fort with us…..but still staying apart…… A 60’s cleat day here in the former happiest place on earth…….i hope Mickey is staying healthy….you KNOW he’s not a spring chicken in mouse years!

Anyway…… I am here …..you’re there ….and we are all together…..CukuKatchu…..🎶….sorry, broke out in song again……you must stay upbeat….all of this will somehow pass and remember your coach will be waiting………..

Santos has the Mercury interior coming together

Watch here for introducing several new “packages” to do specific projects for your coach.  We will have a new aluminum radiator package….you saw just before…..as soon as we prove up the system.  Other packages…..replacement of all rear wheel bearings and seals cost is $220.  Another one…..late model window rubber and window frame refinish and seal package..   $300 for everything including the special green and orange mask tape you’ve read about, trim paint, sealants and all the rubbers.  Another…..roof reseal package……sealants, screws and the ….how to….. Written instructions that will tie to a “Motorhome Rehab Ranch” instruction video.  The roof reseal package is $225 like I said for everything.  How about a complete rear wheel brake system rebuild package…..all the parts…spring kits, wheel cylinders, shoes….everything …..$330.

Because of so much interest in the restoration instruction going on at Motorhome Rehab Ranch, now you can get a Co-op Care Package of all the stuff needed to follow our instruction.  Stay tuned as we roll this new phase of the Co-op growth.  More ideas will be incorporated into the care package restoration concept…..its all come out of things you have told me you want so here we go……

Another project in the holding pattern at the shop, the walls out reveals the chrome mylar insulation of the toy hauler GMC.  Windows will now be tacit and the interior build out will begin……. Buttoned up, this project too will restart when this is all overRon’s door and hinge assemblies got welded up and realigned…….the coach in primer/sealer and bagged off Jeremy was ready to seal the door when……………..

Tomorrow I’ll show you a few more projects we’re holding for now……..see ya then
