Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

You are here: Home / The Daily Pose / The Co-op: we’re getting loaded up again.

March 12, 2019

The Co-op: we’re getting loaded up again.

And no matter how much I say ” act like you don’t own your coach until we get done……I can’t say too much when folks want to hurry to get their coach out………..for the rally!  Yeah, that’s it….the rally, I want to go to the rally….can you PLEASE get it ready to go?

Just because we picked a target for some things to get done….we can’t get them ALL ready for the show…….and it took part of our valuable time to get the brakes going on Scotts coach too!Stop, stop, stop….no more commitments before the beginning of April!  Too much work…….

Got the graphic work on the GadAbout done.Ruby is getting her blindsWe have the punch list here I think it can be ready for a delivery at the rallyTin Soldiers is getting its final punch list ….punchedToday Fandango rides, it too is going to the rally……
Yesterday Marco got its first test drive in preparation to going to the rally.and JayGee got his beltline project doneThe Mercedes has what it has….no more time for that!………So I hope you can see what I mean…..on top of that we’re prototyping a new single fuel tank……yes, these 2 steel tanks are just too old, rusty and really fuel injection systems don’t react well to 2 tanks……. Its twice the cost to have them lined or replaced……senders are getting harder to find…..and the inlet rubber hoses cost a fortune!  There’s “don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater” then there is throwing out the tub, rip out the bathroom….Heck, lets build a new house!  I’m tired of fuel delivery issues making our coaches fail.

Along with the new rotary designed dash AC compressors, a single wire, self exciting alternator, dumping the cute ole V2 air compressor, non radial 16.5″ rims, Troll generators, cast iron exhaust manifolds and now I feel it’s time for an all new fuel delivery system.  The lab rat coach is hereOur projected 54 gallon properly baffled single fuel tank has been prototyped and of course we need this proven up as soon as possible!

No more!  There’s no room at the Innand not enough of us to change all those bed pans!

Crap, its 9:30….gotta GO!
