Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

WOWSER! --- I have long had a lust..er...love for the all stainless MCI9's. Came close to snagging one a number of years ago but at the last minute a couple of people realized what it was and the bidding went absolutely into the stratosphere.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

MCI 9? --- First I've heard of that one. Sweet rigs! Is it one of the all stainless by any chance?

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

Glad to hear it all worked out Jack. The electrical issues sound like a typical KOA BS arrangement so Roger testing before plugging in. Sweet little camper.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

Seems another layer of something with some insulating properties would fix the problem, but finding the right material would seem to be the trick. Has to be light, very flexible and provide sig...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

Howdy Jack --- Looking sweet and glad to hear it lifts with ease. Are you planning on any kind of mechanical lock once they are up or relying on the hydraulic pressure to keep'em where yo want'em?

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
