The Co-op, we’re turning into the “Rehab Ranch”

Sorry guys, something happened to my type selector…. this is what we’ve got till we can get it fixed…. Hey Spacely, can ya help me out here?  Have faith and squint a little til we’ve got it fixed….

Yes, The Co-op is starting to emulate to name of our patreon page….  “Motorhome Rehab Ranch”.  Stay tuned…. lemme process a few pics, be right back…

Was a “Monday” with 2 guys out…. must have been a great weekend!  Jim’s coach needed to get his wheel and rear brakes fixed to leave and with short hands, we again could not accomplish our goals but…. we did get Jim’s coach back on all 6, brakes renewed and parked up front plugged in for last night…. a success.  Also the guys in paint got Ruby back from the booth and even before bulling the paper… here is the first pic of it’s 5 layers of clear.  Lemme present the 1973, #41 prototype GMC Motorhome with a Hum V diesel drive train and now it’s coat of many colors…. Here’s Ruby….  3.7.17 morning 6  3.7.17 morning 7

3.7.17 morning 5

Today we’ll get some outside pics while it cures so stay tuned tomorrow for that. 

Ross got his Kanomata diff mounted up yesterday  3.7.17 morning 8  whenever you see a diff. painted blue… it’s usually a gear change from Applied GMC.  Jim K. supplies all of our gear changes.

Finally, it’s just so nice to go out to the bike on a chilly morning (for me), the thing fire up and my 3.5 mile ride to work starts my day out nice…..

3.7.17 morning 2

Oh yea and what I mean by saying  we’re turning into a Rehab center… it’s true with the coach coming in April first that was sold yesterday… we have 10 recent coach purchases in here for mechanical “rehab”.  Nice coaches, just let go by their long time owners now in the hands of the new owners who want the coach to be reliable again.  Full restorations are our business for sure but here lately new owners are bringing their new toys in for the love they need.  Thanks for your support and trust.  Bringm in.. we’re “rockn’ the free world” here at the rehab ranch…. see ya tomorrow, lets see what we get done…
