Yesterday I had the opportunity to visit Jim Bounds in Orlando at the Co-op's new location. It is a HUGE drive throu building less than 100 yards from his old location. I looks to me that it has the space to house at least 15 coaches, with a lift, offices, and outside electrical hook ups for at least 5 coaches.
This is definitely a one stop shop for all your GMC complete restorations to the minor repair job. Including a inhouse upholstery shop! With his "production line" setup, they could quite possibly fix and repair quicker and cheaper than the average Joe in their own garage.. I still love tinkering on my own coach, but for some of the heavier jobs or upholstery.....sounds very tempting!
Pretty soon I think we will be hearing a lot about their Diesel engine, tranny, front end clip replacement.. It's a toy factory for us GMC'ers!!!

Yeah, yeah, but can you still carry in a box of donuts and be underfoot for
the day?

I had to google "underfoot" to see what it means! I'm a victim of public education! And I would hope the answer is yes. That's what makes that place fun.

Manny is suppose to be there by today. And I believe he bought his Mad Scientist kit with him.
