Thanks, Griff!
This is why I've been looking for an owner's manual...it'll HAVE all the specs & tell me the type of trans, like you just did & that it's reliable & hearty. I'd like to find out about this stuff before I make the long drive out there.
Because it happens to be one of the first that I came across, & the price was right, though there were no pics, i emailed them anyway & got a response the next day. The woman said her husband could call me with all the details. And before I knew it, he was telling me what work he had done to it & how it "wasn't real nice to look at". His tech savvy mother-in-law helped his wife send pics. The exterior's the original maroon & gray stripes on a white cabin. The interior is white, black hot pink. LOTS of hot pink, LOL! But hey, I'm a survivor, I can make anything work, haha!
I still have feelers out, but my mom thinks I'm too psyched about this '76 Lindy & that I'm putting all my eggs in 1 basket. I can't help it if the 1st person I made contact with has the exact body style RV I was looking for. All I told them was that I'd like to see pics because from their ad, I couldn't look up a pic, so I had absolutely NO idea what their rig looked like & there it was....They sent all the interior pics first, then voilá: I think you guys call it the cab over or over-cab design. He said bumper to bumper it's 24', but I can only find blurbs of info on 22' & 23 footers on '76 Lindys, so, I can only assume he either measured incorrectly, or the sizes of RVs do not include the bumpers, maybe?
I just wish I could get a darn manual. Shoot, maybe I'll try Amazon. They truly have everything else. (shrug) ;-/
Thanks Griff, it's nice to know someone who knows his $#/÷. You're like a walking encyclopedia. Are you a mechanic, or do you "just play one on the internet", LOL?
