Just stopping in, Starting to rebuild a recently aquired 66 Class C motorhome. First motorhome in the family. We currently have a 67 Serro Scotty and used to have a '71 Cox Conestoga pop up.

Welcome. Wow, those are classics. I take it you fix up these old RV's and resell them? I'd be interested in hearing what goes into refurbishing these things. Mine is a refurbished rental. Cruise America put some work into mine before I bought it.

Arrow One new guy to another....

Welcome to the forum.
I found this fairly recently myself and it looks to be a great source of info amongst those of us with "experienced" RV's. Glad to see you come aboard with that one. Please post some pics so we can all see it..
Stay safe out there..
Ken

I fix them up and keep them, HAHAHAHAHA!!! I did sell the pop up to a good friend. He helped me do a lot of the work on it anyway. I will likely start a thread on my 66 Dodge motorhome. I have not started with it at all yet.. So it will be a long/slow thread.

Arrow By all means...

Please do post some pics of your new project. It looks to be a fun and interesting project. I remember when those trucks were new and I didn't like the looks of them then and still don't but in my more experienced years, I look at it now and see a real classic. My virtual hat is off to you for repairinng and using it instead of disposing of it. You should be commended for your efforts to preserve it. Please post the pics as you go along. I think it looks like a neat truck to use.
Stay safe out there.
Ken
