Well that was certainly an interesting two days in Daytona. In the end, the "Long Hauler" found a new home as a home for someone that needs to get their life back together and my hope is that it will become part of something positive for someone. This is the parting shot of the RV before I headed out of town and back north today.
No scrapping -- no scrap yard will take RV's anymore with all the regulations. All the wood and insulation needs to be removed before anyone would even consider scrapping it. So, the old RV will become a new residence for someone.
After doing a first day of clean out and packing of the truck I recharged the battery and restarted the engine. I couple quarts of Lucas oil treatment and the engine kept pressure for the trip to it's new home! Hot and sticky outside and it was a reminder of the 5 days in the RV hoping that the shop would help out and fix the engine.
The 440 engine was sold for the reserve price to an owner of a Plymouth Fury yesterday evening and so that part of the project will be picked up next week.
So, that's the end of the "Long Hauler" being stored in purgatory for over a year. Not the way I anticipated but it's the way life is!
