RE: 1977 GMC Day Cruiser
This is image from the trip back to california. I pulled the truck back with the gmc. I like having a vacuum Guage to indicate stress and when to drop the tow'ed. The previous owner over built the cooling system, so high Temps, might be an indication of damage. It didn't handle the tow very well when a Tractor trailer passed if it wasn't dressed with the wind dams. amazing how little impact in turbulence if the tractor was dressed.
Thanks for the images. I agree that is a great look. It looks like the rig is an explorer ii. The explorers are frame off rebuilds of the rigs with a bunch of update late 90's. But even they are old school.
I am working on a generator inverter system to start the roof airs with min weight and cost. The 40 year old Onan works but is smokey and noisy. I'm reading up on hybrid inverters. The new inverters use battery and shore or Gen electric in times when demand would otherwise tax the one Gen or shore power source.
