The Co-op, more fun at the shop

It’s hard to come up with a post title when it’s just part of an unending string of work…. so don’t think the days post bad if the title stinks….. the beat goes on…..

Yesterday was windshield day having my installed come over from the west coast of Florida for an install.  4.28.17 morning 2  That’s the coach owner there taking pics with me  4.28.17 morning 3  The usually charge for this kind of entertainment!  I installed windshields myself until I met these guys… I mean why get all stressed out, Done only installs RV windshields.  He’s used to those huge glass walls on the front of monster motorhomes…. these are no problem and he installs and seals them the way I want them… not the way the book says!  4.28.17 morning 1  With these pros doing the job, it’s $1450 installed, sealed right… American glass…. DONE!

The coach is also in for a quad bag install.  The day was done so having a brew, we remounted his tires 4.28.17 morning 4 Fun times in the big house!  We got Ross back up on  the lift to install his 3.70 limited slip diff 4.28.17 morning 8 that came in yesterday.  Our UPS driver loves bringing in those diff boxes!  And UPS themselves sends us a Chrismas card every years for our support with big heavy boxes 4.28.17 morning 6  Just too much fun for one guy! 

Hey thanks for checking out the new site

          LifeIsMoreThanMPG.com

It’s a mouthful for sure but We’ve already got some cool stuff folks are sending in.  This is not to build a mailing list… I promise other than just our stuff none of the addys from Co-op, Motorhome Rehab Ranch or theresmoretolifethanmpg will not be sold…. wouldn’t know how to do it if I wanted to!  So no worries on that, lets use this internet thing to our benefit…. right?  If you stand still you’re moving backwards so check this stuff out, give us some input and get involved…

Please remember we have an Explorer II GMC restoration (1 of @40) in beautiful condition 2.8.17 Diesel 2 Alcoas, Zip Dee, quad bag AND a 6.5GM turbo-diesel mechanically injected… no computer Hum V diesel fitted!

4.28.17 morning 7  and if that’s not all, a Kubota water cooled diesel generator, 1 shakedown trip to St. Augustine… passed and ready to drive.  Priced at $70,000, make an offer the owner says….. you want diesel… a nice coach…. top shelf…. here it is!  Don’t just sit there… do something!

Really, I can’t believe it’s even here!  Find a home for this puppy!

Gotta go, big day… Ross takes off again… wheel back on, carb replaced and his hot shot 370 limited slip diff… Oh boy, can’t wait for the test drive!

See ya later and thanks for your support…..
