I had rented a storage unit with a tall enough door and deep enough for 22 feet of Road Trek (barely)last October and what with out of town issues and business trips to Florida, Atlanta and Omaha (4 weeks!) then Michigan for a long Christmas visit, I finally went over to the unit, raised the door and cranked up the big 454 V8! It came right to life too!
I had gotten the big monster last year and after fighting the shipping battles it finally showed up in June. I had removed and reinstalled one roof window that had been allowed to leak & spoil the finish on some wood work, changed out a rusted out rear door and started pulling all the trim and .... well EVERYTHING out of the back end to allow for rusty quarter panels to be cut out and replaced with new metal.
Looking forward to getting all that done, painted, re-upholstered and on the road by fall!
Prayers are welcome since God takes care of fools and children.... and I appear to be "all growed up!"
