So I stopped by Arlington RV today when I got off work and noticed a 26' GMC Motorhome parked there. Turned out to be a 1975 Eleganza II owned by the Donovans from Lake Stevens (according to the information on the plaque on the dashboard).
It was there for an awning install, a used Zip-Dee awning install and the tech had never installed a Zip-Dee on a GMC MH before. Apparently they scoured the internet and couldn't find the instructions so I ran home and got my paper copy instructions, they photo copied them and I talked the tech through the install procedure, including having to move the rear marker light and that the awning installs above the drip rail..... not on the drip rail...... he was reinstalling the drip rail screws as I was leaving.
Hope all goes well with the install, it was an older Zip-Dee in Yellow and White and seemed like it may have a busted spring in one end, not sure though as my Zip-Dee has a single spring.
I left my phone number and offered to drive my coach over there if they needed Chinese blueprints (side by side comparison), I only live 2 minutes away so what the hell, if I get the chance to help a fellow GMCer I am all for it.
