Annual bath time for the C10! Along with the suds, it got an oil change and grease on the front suspension. It's all good now!

The Camino is finally back together! I was having some issues with the clutch and TO bearing and decided it was time for new stuff! The new included a Tilton ST-246 dual disc clutch, a Tick Performance TO bearing, and a new pilot bearing. I also had the Quicktime bellhousing checked for flatness and it needed some machine work to get it right. To be sure the bell was concentric, a pair of RobbMC offset dowel pins replaced the originals. All that combined got us back on the road!

It's time for a shop update...

We got the floor sealed, hung the Stars & Stripes, hung some imitation automobilia (I'm too cheap for the real stuff 😆), and finally got the septic pump installed! We also ordered kitchen cabinets from Hurst Custom Cabinets. They should be done early November.

More shop updates... We had gutters installed, the concrete bridges were poured, we have water, all the lights are in, all outlets and light switches are in, I hung a neon sign 😁, and the trailer is parked in it's new home! Next up is sealing the floor, and dirt work, which probably won't happen until November.

Some more shop stuff... all fans are in, almost all outlets and switches are in, and Big Boy moved in!

More shop updates... the interior metal is done, the boiler is in, most of the electric outlets are in, some light switches are in, one ceiling fan is in and operational, all three garage doors and openers function, and both coach lights function. I still need to connect the water, install two more ceiling fans, and finish the outlets and switches.
