Proud New Owner of 74 Painted Desert

[robert teed]

Well I finally tracked the owner of the GMC
down, He sold it to me for $740.00 plus I have
to pay the storage on it...$360.00
I think its the best deal I've ever had...Maybe
my lucks changing for the better.
Anyway I have the title, Heres the information
that I have on it:

1974 GMC TZE064V100960
Original Owner: Emmitt Dennis
Lansing,Mi

New Owner: Robert Teed
Lansing,Mi.
robteed

The Coach is painted in the "Bittersweet" color. The
air conditioner was stolen off it a few years ago.
So I need information on that. It has a 4000watt
generator, Fridge and Stove look OK....I had to get
in thru a window..The old guy can't find the keys
so need to call a locksmith. The engine looks HUGE!
The coach has a 1/2 inch of dust on it.
We have decided not to sell it. We want to start
refurbishing it. Im going to start removing the
carpeting this week. The old guy said he thinks the
solinoid went out on it. What do You guys think of
this....Any Great Lakers in lansing want to help me
on this project?
See Ya on the Road......Someday!
Rob Teed

Thanks Arch,
I had received your emails before, Glad to hear the progress you've
made on yours. I think the water pump is leaking on mine...But thats
an easy fix...Right now I'm just wanting to get it started to move
it home.
See Ya,
Rob

Rob,

Just be sure the water pump you get has the large cast impeller.

ROB: Perhaps I could swing up and give you a hand some weekend. I live
in Novi, Mi. approx. 50 miles from you. I have a 77 kingsley that I have
been restoring for the last three years, so I know what you are in for.

Hi Jack,
Thanks for the offer, I might take You up on that. But first I have
to get the thing running. I'm getting no fuel at the carb...I'm
going to look for the fuel pump tommorow. Is yours a mechanical
pump mounted on the engine block or do they use electric pumps?
Thanks,
Rob Teed 74 Painted Desert 455 engine
