The 🤽 Co-op: No water polo at the beach but any day at the beach is a holiday

Mutcedes is off its leash ….so now that new roller motor will get its proper run in…….still haven’t gotten used to the tires yet…..man, they are wayyyyy out thereDelivered a 69 F150 Ranger yesterday……of COURSE it belongs to a firefighter………..……….FiTech, an intake, aluminum radiator and then Jeremy did a color sand and buff on the single stage red…….we like sharp trucksAND trucks with potentialso you think you Kia has a turbo…….THIS is a turbo!…….i was poking around at some of the stuff around the shop………radiatorsand fuel tanksamong piles of other hard to find stuffBy themselves its mostly junk but if you need a fuel tank you really need one!  Our new aluminum tanks are also good for making that pile of old metal tanks.  We’re going to have any good tanks cleaned and available for folks not yet sold on the new tank systems……same on radiators……..our new aluminum. Radiator system uses a different concept……. Why make special, expensive, hard to get parts for your coach……..adapt our coach to accept new, off shelf quality partsjust as we did on the red Ford truck…….new aluminum radiator, a 2 fan box on the radiator….no motor fan or clutch.  Ford 351 modified motors were notorious for getting hot…..not this one!  Next week I’ll show you what we’ve come up with for our GMC……. It will be a complete system…….seperate oil, trans and water cooling units, electric fan box, no old metal fan, clutch OR nasty ole fan shroud…..all new stuff with no more old decrepit old parts.

THAT stuff is not what makes our motorhome great…..that stuff keeps it old and susceptible to break down……..were fixing all that stuff one part at a timeand then there’s the Rivieracheck out this trunk lidJeremy is the MAN taking on a scooter like THIS thing……..hey, but that’s what we do…..the hard stuffsee ya tomorrow…..have a weekend on me
