The Co-op: Another bird gets ready to fly again………once again ” The Dream’s Alive” (UPDATED)

Again, to me another historic coach I’ll tell ya more about it later but this animal and I have history together.  Hey and check out the tires on the coach to the left……Rick is going for something different……..its a project we’re cranking back up…….stay tuned for more on it too

I’ll leave you till the morning with a scan of JayGee’s gator dash
I wanna know:

Trans temp., volts, speed/trip odometer, Tach., Water temp., fuel, oil pressure, vacuum, injector efficiency %, fuel flow and air/ fuel ratio and there’s the 7″ LCD screen radio!…….you know, just the basics….in Burl and gator…..good night……

UPDATE………….

Rather that starting another post and since I wanted to show you a recent “survivor) purchase here are some things you should look for when picking a coach.  So the paint isn’t the best thing on the coach……that can be fixedso look beyond that…the striping isn’t bad, the colors could be renewed one at a time maybe even leaving the tan color.  We have 16″ Alcoa rims….7 of them, a Zip Dee patio awning, one of the very early prototype Quad bag systems…..rounded top shoulders and not gold zinc annodized, Sirums Alcoa center caps…….a Honda water cooled 6000watt generator.the new aluminum single fuel tank and FiTech fuel injection.Wwith a descent interior just needs a clean and check this storage compartment outOh, sorry….here it is.Doesnt need that spare tire in there with its quad bag system but you can see how big the storage area is…..its in there!  Not for everyone but still….pretty cool!

So this is a great example of a survivor that will probably finish off its mechanical and be home with its new family for less than $25,000.  Will still need more but man, this coach really offers a bunch of stuff.  Look for something like this If you’re interested in one of theseRon H. Is dropping by to recap his project and map out what’s nextYoh know, the one with no dashetc.  Stay tuned…….And we’re at a review point on Chris M. New floor + projectand of course Ruby is ruling the big house right nowso yeah, we’re busy……after 8am so we all need to get going…….see ya later and thanks for dropping by
