Hi kids,
Greetings from the high country of Arizona.
I recently was given a 1978 29' Executive class A, and am working on un-doing the years of damage done by the mice as it sat unused.
Fortunately, it only took me a couple hours to get the old 440 engine going so it could be driven home.
Now the work begins, I will be doing a ton of cleaning and repairs, including replacing miles of wires the mice chewed.
I'm looking forward to being an active part of this community, I am going to be asking for help and advice, and I will also be chipping in with my own experiences in life as they relate to the world of mechanical things, RV's, and camping life.

Pix of my 1978 Executive, hope they show up.
I will get pix of the interior soon.
It may be an old MH, but I rarely ever turn down something free. Especially if I can make it run and drive.

Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you decided to join the gang! 
Congrats on the new rig! I bet you're gonna have lots of fun getting her in tip-top shape! I would suggest posting specific questions over in the appropriate areas of the forum for best results. Not many folks hang out here in the Welcome area. Enjoy the forum!
Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!
