Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

You are here: Home / GMC Motorhome, If you don’t use your coach, something is wrong with you!

February 27, 2017

GMC Motorhome, If you don’t use your coach, something is wrong with you!

Got a late start this morning, go finish your coffee and come back later….  See ya then

OK. pics processed and like I said in the title for today…. guys… if you own one of these GMC’s and it’s road ready… what are you doing sitting there…. get out and use the coach to make you happy!  If it’s not road ready…. what are you doing sitting there again….. get out there and get it done mister!  THEN find out why you have this thing…. for the fun of it!

This weekend is what this is all about… at least as far as I’m concerned.  I don’t want to bore you with the details…. well maybe I go and maybe you may be interested and figure out something like this to do with YOUR coach!

So… what did I do this weekend, it was something Janie & I both could enjoy…. you KNOW may coach “JayGee”  MVPA 2017 ren 16 and some of the other toys we have fun with around here MVPA 2017 ren 17  So where could you go and have a blast with all that stuff?  How about the Military Vehicle Preservation Association show at Rennager’s Flea market in Mt. Dora. Setting up a Fire Fight Products display we stayed all weekend not at the show but IN the show  MVPA 2017 ren 3  How much fun?  They had tanks and a WWII reenactment to boot!  MVPA 2017 ren 18    MVPA 2017 ren 14  Because of my Commy bike, MVPA 2017 ren 13 Hey and check out my new Russian motorcycle goggles!  We befreined the Germany camp…  We found them period sunglasses at the flea market for 50 cents each so we gave them all a pair MVPA 2017 ren 15  Yeah and how bout that Conway Twitty hat for $1!  Kinda “steam punk” which there was a Steam Punk concert that night complete with fire eaters and some ptreyy messed up costumes

 MVPA 2017 ren 9  MVPA 2017 ren 8 Wow, that was wild…. they were a company of Steam Punkers paying their way across the country….  Lets see… I think the name of one of the bands was “The Cog is Dead”….. OOOOOKKKKKKKK … lets move on… but man, that at an MVPA show…. inpressive young Skywalker….

All that to say… man take your GMC to something… a knitting festival…. mud race…. WWII reenactment … just go somewhere, do something with your GMC…. isn’t that why you have it!.

One more subject, we are working toward several deliveries right now and things are going well.  For those of you seeking to have restoration work done on your coach …. lemme tell you something I tell each and every costomer who has work in here….. I do not spend your money of rushing a job to get it done, we spend the money and time it takes to do it right.  All of that hype drama you see on TV is just that.  A restoration or any work you do should not be based on the time it takes to do it rather the outcome.  We are finishing up “Fandango” that has been a project with us 1 1/2 years From idea Bill-color-8 to execution  Bill finals 21 Some of you right then gasp…. guys, that’s what it takes!  Do it all yourself and it will take you longer than that!  There is :

Speed

Price

quality

You can only pick 2.  If you want it fast… it will be expensive or the quality will have to drop.  There is no way around this law of physics.  If the quality is the focus expect the time take to be more and the cost will go up as well.  We need to find that balance, pushing in any direction effects the balance.  Remember that guys when you set time tables…. any of this work will cost more than you thought and take more time…. if the quality is good.  Follow us as we finish thise projects and know we did our best….  See ya tomorrow….
