      😂 At least all that plumbing stress has an upside of being entertaining to watch afterward! We certainly learn new things every time we do a project.

      @@retrorevivals , such a smart move to put in those gauges. So needed. I actually think those type gauges need to be in EVERY vehicle. No "dummy lights" should ever be in any car, or truck, or boat, or plane. Gauges tell what an engine is doing.

    I was basically in hysterics watching this! From the awesome voice at the start and end, to the wild Real Men of Genius, to Jack saying, "A few inches later" when the belt was squealing like a stuck pig! And I've wondered all my life what an algorithm is, and now I'll never forget! Very clever! We enjoyed seeing your children working with you, and enjoying the time together as a family. You are profesh and the best is yet to come! 💚

    This is so amazing, fun to watch and so inspiring! My husband and I bought brand new in 1977 empty dodge van with only captain chairs exactly like yours ! We made it into a camper! We had a z brick fireplace that held our heater, a couch that turned into queen size bed and counsel complete with brand new CB radio. And we cut out a hole for a big window! This is before conversion vans. His parents helped with the build.

    Retro builds are so much cooler than all the common stuff. Those engines and transmissions are hard to kill. If you can get some block hugging exhaust headers, a friend of mine installed those on a Dodge D300 camper van and it raised his fuel economy from really really bad to just really bad... but gave it a bump in performance as well. Converting to a modern Mallory multispark digital ignition will net 10% in fuel economy, if not more, on that engine as well.

    • @retrorevivals
      @retrorevivals  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for the suggestion 😁. I'm not a big fan of the factory manifolds. Maybe headers in the future. It does have factory electronic ignition. It could probably stand an upgrade being 48 years old and all 🤷‍♂️.

    How awesome this was to watch and see how you guys turn this rv project into a family home. I have seen part 1 and Honestly.........after you mentioned to km (miles) the motor had done, I would have assumed that there and then you would redo the motor and replaced every everything instead of testing to blown head gasket when it over heated, replaced water pump, replaced radiator..............etc etc
    when you spend all that time in the engine bay doing all those, it is just normal doing a full service on her. you actually wanted to spend more time on the engine then the interior because she is going to get you not only from point a to b but making sure you guys arrive safe.

    • @retrorevivals

    I started refreshing the shower in my 2000 Four Winds Infinity Class A this weekend. The previous owner had put some sort of sealant/ProFlex/Silicone/Plumber's Putty in the joint between the shower surround and the floor pan- it looked horrible! It took me a full 7 hours to get it off. I wish to God I knew what it was so I could put out a warning for it! ICK. Then I sanded the shower stall down and finished for the day. I was going to get to painting, but it's been really cold here in North Central Florida, and the Marine paint I bought said not to apply it below 50 degrees, so we opted to go to the Tampa RV show today instead! I hope my bathroom turns out to be as beautiful as yours is! Great job, and I love your channel!

Matt from Matt's RV Reviews was there, as were the Grateful Glampers, so a good time was had by all! I told the man at General RV- those RVs were magificent and beautiful, but mine had one thing that none of them had- IT'S PAID FOR! He laughed! And we visit St. Pete quite frequently- my daughter is a competitive swimmer and we go to a lot of swim meets at St. Pete Aquatics.
