cny first gen 71

Welcome aboard nice find, you will enjoy the meet I'm sure.

No need to say sorry, it was all in fun. A lot of us have blown the budgets right out of the water at one time or another. I'm still curious if the upper control arm works from 10 to 12 bolt because I have a 12 bolt on deck also.

What is this budget you speak of What ever you figure something is going to cost you can almost double it and you will find something else you will need also (snowball effect) That's why I haven't started my motor and front end project yet, still collecting parts.

Hows this going any new progress?

Summit has some listed but mostly aluminum.

I rebuilt mine several years ago and as stated its not an awful job but it started leaking again last summer I found the seal between the housing and body was leaking. I decided to get a rebuilt pump to replace it. I normally only put new parts on mine instead of rebuilt but was about a hundred dollar difference and you had to use the orig. housing. I got a rebuilt from advanced auto for around $65.00 the body was a little different but fit and worked fine. I have no complaints about it. Just my 2 cents.

Looks good, rainy day you say eh? It was 7 degrees this morning and we got about 6 inches of snow today but I still went to rv show today. Just kicking tires, I love the camper we have.

That really sucks, sorry to hear but we all know that there are them kind of people out there.

Congratulations Dan, very nice find. Good luck with it.

My 71 non vinyl has lead in the roof, there was no need to disturb it when I did the body work. I did have to use some body filler in a couple spots but went right over it fine.

Here you go Larry, I painted them but now they just dont look right. Good thing no one will ever see them

Good catch, you may want to check everything over good before ordering any parts. May be able to save on shipping if you need anything else.

aboard, thank you for your service. Good luck with it and yes take lots of pictures of progress.

Can't wait to see it Willie, it's been a long time coming.
