Its been so long since I've blogged that I've forgotten how to do this!
Yesterday I made the trip up to Colin's shop to deliver wheels/tires, Prodex, a new coupler, a Bulldog jack (manual, we are going t rough it
),
Furrion inlet and breakaway switch. I also delivered a melanine plate,
aqua of course, so he can use it to color match the tub, he said that
was a first for him!
The photos below are the excellent documentation he does for all his clients.
I actually got to watch them flip the chassis and torch off the old axles. Pretty cool
In the third picture there a shiny area on the endcap where Colin used his super secret polish
.
It still looks pretty good and it has to be at least three years ago
he did that! We really need to get him to make the polish for
production!
Take note of the sixth photo, this was the result of a tire blow out with the previous owner. Its going to require a ful panel replacement on the streetside . It's all good though because I can get rid of the openings where the furnace and water heater were.
Also in the ninth photo note the propane line and the fact they drilled a hole (actually three holes, I guess the first two were for practice lol) to pass the propane line into the furnace duct. I guess they thought the customer wanted their propane warmed!!!!!
said that was the first time they'd seen that too.... I would hope so!
ENJOY! And for a "Where's Waldo" moment I brought Christmas cookies, can you spot them among all the damage?
