I appreciate the help. If I can't find some good ones, than I probably will build my own. Thanks again.

what are you working on?

I'm working on FL Century Class-45' like the one Wick's having built.

Hey, that sounds interesting! Keep us all posted, please!(which should go without saying around here!)

Hey, the more the merrier, right?

.....racing 99: where are you located?....geofkaye

Geofkaye, I'm located in Southern California close to San Bernardino. It's tough out here on the West Coast with no builders close by. As I get further along with the building of my coach I'm going to depend alot on this forum for help. Steve

Man, I heard THAT! We Kahlifornianos really ARE on the short end of the truck conversion convenient-location stick! Somebody HELP US!

....hey Steve: if you need any help with Ideas/projects contact an old Friend of mine who used to build GMC trucks and coachs....He is full of ideas and suggestions and knows his stuff with many many contacts....his name if Jim Peugh..... jpeugh@citivu.net Jim has a lot of contacts with customizers and can come up with all sorts of things....geofkaye

Thanks for the help. I'll contact him for sure. Where's he located? One of the things I'm really having trouble deciding on is which style of slide mech. to go with. I plan on having 3 slides. Thanks again. Steve

.....he is up near NAPA Wine country....He runs the website for the winos[whoops-wine drinkers] in that area Rancho Cucamonga[sp]....he's a real good guy and has an IQ of 150 on his worst days.....but he can figure out stuff and he is a degreed Engineer.....geofkaye

WOW! 150IQ. Engineer. Can figure stuff out.(somehow the last two don't mix too well) I have a tough time keeping my IQ at double digits......

......Gary.....somes are thinkers and somes are doers.....Jim in both....he just rebuilt a GMC Eleganze Motorhome[OLDS]-I believe it is a '86[?]... inside and out....He sent me apix and I can't find it-as usual .....you know me and pix!.....anyway he was with Truck and Bus for many years and knew the production side very well....geofkaye

Wow(again)! To be able think AND do! Sometimes I think I do, or do I think? Anyhoo, sounds like a good guy to know. See if you can somehow get him tied up with our seedy-but-VERY-friendly little bunch here. You never know....
