Still working on the old Girl

Got the back re-framed and all re-sided. Took it up to Lake George NY for Americade. It made it,,,, but coughed and sputtered up and back.

I just installed a Quadrujet (I had built for it) and edelbrock manifold. That should help a lot. Just got to get it tuned in.

Helping a friend that owns a Auto Salvage yard for a few weeks and what did he pull in???? An exact copy of my RV, same year make model and all. 60K on the 360ci but some pucks broke all the ceiling…

It's a 1977 Free Spirit on a Dodge Chassis, 22 foot long. It's got a 360 ci engine and 727 tranny, 64k when I got it. The original owner took good care of it but the last one didn't, used it for a place to live while building a house.

Drive train is fine, It's got a 2 barrel holley on it but I've had a Q-jet built for the motor and will install that shortly. Should give me better mileage and a lot more power when needed. Engine runs great and it's in excellent condition underneath. I just changed all the brake lines and will do the fuel lines when the weather gets a bit better. Refer works, air conditioner works., still haven't tried the heater and stove but was told they worked fine. Plan on replacing all the black pipe for the LP too.



Some water damage in the right rear, I tore it apart (inside) the other day but haven't been able to play with it because of the weather (shiveling snow off the roof :) )

Lived in Miami Beach back in 69 and 70, Been to Daytona for Bike week a dozen times. Have family in Pensacola area and will be stopping down there on the way to Panama City Beach Bike week in late April.

Used to hit the clubs in Lauderdale when I was in Miami. There was an amusement park down there we use to go to for concerts... Can't remember the name (maybe Pirates World?)
