Well I just realized that I am a Class A motorhomer with my purchase (first time owner). I hope you all don't sanction me because of that!!! This thread is great!! The first time I read through everything after being directed here by Google, I thought "wow just what I'm looking for". Even though I don't have a Class C. I hope you will all let me participate with the discussions, just for the simple fact that I am redoing an inexpensive purchase. Actually I thought the thread was missing an "I", ClassIc Dodge Motorhomes
Also if anyone may be interested, there is a Class C for sale in my area for $2000. I have not looked at it, but I would guess it is based on a Dodge Tradesman van type frame. Guessing it is about 16 to 18 foot. If anyone is interested I can do some digital photos for you.
Okay now for an opinion on my deranged inventive ideas!!! Someone prior to me piped in a heater core to the furnace from the engine radiator. I was thinking, if I disconnected the lines to the furnace heater core and put some quick disconnects, could I use an outside wood fired water heater to supply heat to the MH? I have in the past done winter camping in a tent in my area and I am planning to do the same in the "new" MH. As you can see by my location, we do set the Nation low for temps in the winter. I would also need to purchase another two Samoyed Huskys to make it a "three dog night"!!!!!!
Also to Edgarthe bear, you seem to have alot of info on chassis, if I relay the info could you hep me out on my chassis figuration?
Mopar = More Power!!!!!!!
