Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

You are here: Home / The Daily Pose / The Co-op, and the beat goes on…..

October 3, 2016

The Co-op, and the beat goes on…..

Yes, and the beat DOES go on…. Peter and the guys escorted over the last canvas awning from our old shop all in one piece 10-2-16-morning-5  our “Nearly new” department totally cleaned out…. never thought I would see that!  10-2-16-morning-2

So… just how many original air bag aluminum cones DO I need to keep?  10-2-16-morning-1  Answer is…. none!  10-2-16-morning-3

Friday was Peter’s last day.  Helping us get into this new facility and setting up systems he was a God send for us.  With a facility like this the days of winging it were over.  Thanks Peter for a job well done 10-2-16-morning-4.  So nowwe are on our own, a first thing is to find more parking for the guys… Needed Phillip to run the MOCHINE and take out the curb dump-station-1  for our new dump station.  dump-station-2  Now, pulling in straight the dump station is on the driver side along with the 2 50 amp plugins you see there.  Man, we needed that!

I got Willie & Nancy’s dash donut recovered white-dash-2  Note we filled in the steering column cut out on the dash donut.  We’re dropping the steering column 1 1/2″ at the dash to put the steering wheel in a more useful position.  Willie went “diver down” to install his new holding tank white-holding-tank-1  After that the macerator goes in… stay tuned to see that.

Brently is assembling Bill’s exterior blackout roof accessories.  bill-acc-paint-2  These were all sprayed with adhesion promoter then satin black  bill-acc-paint   The look on Bill’s coach is blackout the roof accessories to draw attention back to the style of the coach.  A GMC has the shape and style… why not flaunt it!

So like I said…. The beat goes on…we have the facility, the systems, the manpower and the work.  All that’s needed now is to get-r-done…..  Thanks to all of you, Jay, Peter and the gang here… The Co-op has grown to offer more.. yep and we’re also buried with limo repairs limo-section-paint-1  not only that, we’re building limos too.. from this so-op-build-1-1  to this coop-limo-4  limos are us  co-op-limo-4  3-limos  So again… thanks for your support and friendship… we really ARE here for you… this is the real deal and thanks for dropping by…. see ya tomorrow…
