Happy birthday dar

So I don't know what was going on with jaeger blowing white smoke. It's stopped now, and I'm suspecting it was a tune issue to begin with. Oh well. Studs are going in tonight, and springs with go in whenever I got my spring compressor tool. I'm finding I hate the engine bays on these new trucks. There is just no room for anything in there

Truck camper, 1982 Coachman. It's been stored inside for the past 12 or 13 years. I think the fridge is crap, need to look into it. Came with 30 lbs of birdcrap on the roof, 100 lbs of dust, and a full propane bottle. Stove and furnace work, and the waterpump. As far as I got after I gave it a bath. Only gave $800 for it, he was asking 1200, I timed it perfectly, I offered $800 and he said yes, he has a CNC machine coming on Tuesday going to sit where the camper was, lol.

Pete if that is a dual fuel fridge. Take it out and turn it upside down for a few days. Then flip it over and start it up on propane. See what happens.

Really? It is dual fuel, 110v and propane. I'll try it, I like the dual fuel idea and don't want to spend 3-4 hundred for a new one. Not too impressed with putting in a "college" refrigerator either. Man, you know all the coolest (literally in this case) tricks! :lol:

Kiddo and I went to Culvers tonight for some free ice cream. Don't mind the mess. She got an unexpected piece of Oreo and didn't know what to think so she spit it all out.

Thanks guys for the wishes, speaking of campers we just got back from a camping trip with some friends and my daughter and her husband and kids, they just bought a 16 foot 1977 Prowler last week, I hand waxed it for them while they were out of town, harder than I thought, but I did find a nice and easy way to shine it up, pledge furniture polish....thank me later Pete... :lol: :lol:

I am stoked that they are taking up camping as a family, it is a thing near and dear to my heart, good hole some fun in nature.....and with my 7 week old grandson to boot... 8) 8)

steaks, fried taters/onions, corn on the cob cooked on the fire, and homemade ice cream.

Pulled the fridge tonite and flipped it over. It was kinda awkward in there, not much room. It better work Philip! :lol:
I forgot to take pics, I was so excited at the thought of not having to double the value of the camper by buying a fridge I lost my head! :lol:

Good luck Pete. I hope the upside down fridge truck works for you.

On an unrelated note jaeger maxes out at 206km/h

Is that per redline? Or no more power?
