FrugalFreak, I followed the link to your photobucket site. Nice pics of the engine. Also looks like you are doing some major interior renovations! Were you able to remove the ceiling panels without taking the cabinets out first?

The ceiling didn't have any panels, It had bad warped wood paneling ceiling job someone added and a rotted plywood roof that came from factory. We tore off as much rotted material as we could and We slid new plywood sections in between roof and existing reinforced previous studs and added some new studs up front in the bunk and cab area and built up the front some so the top of roof will be level for the kool-seal. Later when I can afford to buy one single sheet of aluminum with NO seams, I will completely take roof off and replace complete roof and the old plywood structure.

Looks great eyeteeth.... really nice job. You have really fixed your rig up nice.

I don't think anyones dying statement ever contained the words "I wish I had spent more time in the office", so lets go somewhere!

Really? My old '67 GTO wouldn't get anywhere near 18 mpg. Of course, my then 16 year old lead foot might have had something to do with it.

Yeah Sweetnessmonster, that was crusing at highway speed... not saying what it would be rodding it around town.

Doug in CA... yeah paid 1300.00 for my 64 in 1969? I think. You could buy alot of hot rod back then for a couple of grand. Of course I was making 2 bucks and hour at the local truck stop so...... everything is relative I guess.

Thanks, it's coming along. Much slower since we started using it weekly again... and I became unemployed. But it will get there. Sooner rather than later I hope.

It's really nice being able to clean up after a long, hot day running around the track, and dirt pits.

Does anybody here have a 440 engine with A/C ?

If so would you happen to have any pictures of how the air compressor attaches to the engine as well as the drive pulley arrangements?

My mh seems to have originally came with an aftermarket / dealer installed a/c system but the compressor and mounting brackets have been removed and i,m trying to get an idea how it was set up.

Thanks
Harry

I have a 79 Fleetwood Jamboree with a 440 and A/C. Here are some pics although it is hard to get good ones in the confined space.
