The Co-op: Happy 2018

Popped out the other side of the holiday in tact!  How was yours?  Guys I don’t know what to say but dang it’s cold…. call me a winp or whatever but when the fluorescent are dim and flicker it just does something to me…… That is cold to me!  This cold spell is hitting us all…. Oh go ahead anf laugh, I’ve got broad shoulders…..I’ll stop whining……. but it was cold….

The shop sat there like a TV show put on hold 1.2.18 morning 1  coming back to the show after that long bathroom break………. it’s hard to get back into the plot after all those commercials….that’s what we’ll be doing today.  Changing out the rear main on the 78 blue Ford pickup…it’s the first job on the 2 post lift…nice to work inside…. and I’m on…with my upholster…..Ruby’s interior………..  it’s still cold out there but I’m forcing myself soon so stay tuned………

I hope 2018 is a good one for us all, we’ve had much progress here at the Co-op with hopes for more to come.  Give your coach a hug for me and know it’s one year older….us too!  Now I don’t have to differentiate …..the last GMC manufacture being 1978…. ALL of these things are 40 years old!  All of them need that attention so thanks for taking on that stewardship if you own one of these….. do right by it….see you tomorrow….

    As a new owner of a 1977 I was excited to see MY COACH in the above photo inside the shop with it’s hood up. My goal is to visit all lower 48 states in that coach in 2018. I believe I purchased a sound RV and I am thrilled to have Jim and Cooperative Motor Works behind me…or in front of me.
