Does that mean I have to "lurk" until I turn 40?
Sometimes I think at 38 I'm too young to own an RV, but I guess it doesn't
hurt to get all the major projects done while I still feel like working on
the GMC!
So welcome aboard, Chuck, and have fun restoring - from another "youngster"

Hello everyone!
As the new owner of a '74 26' Sequoia, I thought I would pop out of the
woodwork and HI!
Bit 'O Background......
I am Chuck Esh, from Georgetown, TX 1 wife, 1 1/2 kids (!October!) 2
cats,
2 dogs, and ..... (bored yet?) and still a working stiff, 24 years until
65!, well, at least I am over 40. Been reading the digest version since
July, 1998.
The Coach.....
1974 Sequoia, original condition, 54k miles, 10 year old "D" tires,
26-9
floor plan, interesting interior color scheme, pink and tan. Overall,
the
coach is in pretty good shape. Outside has no dents, etc, all parts are
there, and almost everything works. Run goods, rides nice. The interior
is
ok, but every piece of plastic is disintegrating, you just look at one
of
the light fixtures and it crumbles into dust.
The plan is to restore and customize the coach over the next 3 to 5
years.
First will be tires. Right now it is at a storage place 50 miles from
home,
and don't plan on moving very far until them "D"s are gone! They are
very
weather checked on the sidewalls. Fortunately, the storage place has
covered
RV slots and it is in one of them.
I am sure as I dig into the coach, I will have a billion questions for
everyone.
Oh, and I did send Dave G. my TZE!
Later!
