Howdy Campers,
As promised, I am going to be keeping a build thread on this restoration. Many of you asked that I get some good before pictures. Not only do I have pictures, but I also have a video. I am working on getting it all put together but here is a taste of the madness I have signed up for...
I will post more once I get it all uploaded.
I am happy to be a spoiler and report that after changing out the two huge 4D starting batteries the engine started almost immediately. I am now chasing coolant leaks. The mice/squirrels seem to like the hoses on this coach. Cut out and spliced in two repair sections so far. Know of one more needed, but that bugger is right on top of the side-mounted radiator and appears to be a nightmare to reach. I hope to get that repaired before the week is out. Once it holds fluids without spraying them everywhere, I will move onto the leveling system, lights, and brakes. I would like to see this coach moving under its own power by the end of the month.
*** I am still trying to learn this site, so any help on posting pics would be appreciated.
