The Co-op, missed it yesterday, why?

Aaaahhhhh, there it is… thanks Lucy… it was “toolbar toggle” … life is good again and I have my Comic Sans MS font back. 

Now that we have progress somewhere so where WAS I Tuesday?  or was it Monday, I get confused anymore… anyway I think it was Monday I had a coach to pick up and I needed to get to our chrome folks to pick up a bumper but I also needed to get Cedric’s bumpers to get the treatment.  So it was “up with the sun, out with the wind…” 3.15.17 morning 10 3.15.17 morning 11  This place does the best chrome on the planet and I have no problem driving to Satellite Beach to do business with these guys  3.15.17 morning 12  This is a secret place I truly support.  The owner is a great guy, he’s a motorhomer, used to have a GMC in fact and is hooked into the Monacco group …. you know.. big, no bull quality motorhomes, and RC boat racer and like I said all around good guy his passion though is chrome and he has a place you just can’t believe.  To do REAL chrome you need to go at it and Space Coast Chrome does that  3.15.17 morning 14  3.15.17 morning 13  yes, he’s the place for that deep chrome on Harley parts too 3.15.17 morning 15  You can do no better than these guys work, I’ll show you our new chrome bumpers later…… but I still had to pick up a coach so back in Ole Faithful Ralph and into south Florida we went….. really flat land!  3.15.17 morning 9  Hey, seat time is seat time, I enjoy driving Ralph too but driving so many different coaches it’s a fun perk of this business…. you gotta take good times when you can getm’…. 3.15.17 morning 6 Bout an hour out of Orlando on a backroad I used to fire back and forth to Miami when I was a young buck I stopped at this big ole tree that marked 1 hour from home  3.15.17 morning 4  The Ole tree was chopped down… it was pretty bad way back… but they did put up a sign about why there was 2 concrete pick-nic tables there what 35 years ago  3.15.17 morning 7  Heck, I had been stopping there long ago and never knew it actually was a stop on Flaglers train to the Keys!  And I never knew that…. sure wish the pick-nic tables looked better… guess the sign did in the budget for the place  3.15.17 morning 5  Well, at least it IS marked now…  anyway, that put me home well after dark so that’s where that day went.

It must have been Monday cause yesterday we had so much happening there was no way to sit down and plunk anything….. there it is, and now it’s Wednesday and the guys are already here.  Having that emergency off the road repair threw us off a bit.  Ross, you are off the lift, we had to get the job on the lift but now we can go to the next step on yours  3.15.17 morning 2  Dig that crazy spoiler… pretty neat…. Hey JD, you are going over to paint today… it’s kinda like musical chairs.. as one finished up another takes it’s place.  That’s you Bill, Fandango is up on the lift not next but after we replace Joe’s tranny…. Man I wish I had 2 lifts!!!  Hey, it’s all in line so everyone keep your seats….

BYW, for you bikers… my 96 Ultra Classic fired right up at 41 degrees this morning… MAN that’s nice….. it makes you feel you’re truly alive riding in the 40’s but you guys up north I know are grinding your teeth.  Hey, Bike Week in Daytona and the weather is clear.  There will be some beer consumed THIS week!    Ya DO need to wear gloves  3.15.17 morning 1 Nice pic there with Joe’s party bus in the background….. it was on the chilly side.

We finished the 1973 Mustang “Olympic addition” so now we have this cute little thing to do up another badass interior.

3.15.17 morning 3  Yeah that’s gonna be fun!

OK, so you get the picture… we are slammed with more coming.  Thanks all you customers for believing in us… we take your trust seriously.  The guys are rumbling.. I need to get out and rumble too… see ya tomorrow …Oh and we’re breaking the dry spell of new videos on Patreon.com.  Gonna do a classroom kinda talk about our fuel system this morning… go to “Motorhome Rehab Ranch” later on and see if we got it up.  Talk to ya later…..
