It's a day later and I am STILL whupped.

Now all I gotta do is replace the belts, hoses, fluids, and battery,
and reconnect the dash, and we'll see where she's at. :)

Robin,
Congratulations on getting it home.
Looks like you have plenty of enthusiastic help at the RV park.
They ask as many questions as folks on the GMCnet.

Robin,

Your Barn Queen rolls again! In the Kingdom (or is that Hood) of Pun. Robin has some Merry Men already willing to pamper their new Queen.

I think you really have something here. Looking at the dash, I would abandon the ElectroLevel and either just use the schraeder valves or Gene's cool wireless air. <http://appliedgmc.com/prod.itml/icOid/1052> Even though the bags are old, they have been out of the sun. They might be good for a while.

I'd give the kids a roll of paper towels and a couple bottles of Windex and set them loose. $20 could go a long way to making her pretty again. Maybe your little generator and a vacuum cleaner (and 4 or 5 bags) could get rid of lots of critter debris!

You have the optional external 110 volt outlet by the door. A new steering wheel I suppose is in the mix.

I like it!
