Exclamation St.Louis,MO,I need you!!!

Hello all, sorry to take up the forum for such localized issues, but I need help.

We have the Overlander almost gutted. Pluged it in for the first time today, happy to find out that the A/C works, (we are buying new fridge/stove/oven) but we need to know about the other stuff. Why some thing won't work/run when it's plugged in. I tried checking the manual, but oyvei!!! (sp?)

SO, point is, we're veneering the walls with aluminum, started today, need to finish this week. We would love for someone in the area who knows vintage (this ones a 1976) to come explain how it all works, so we can continue working on it. We hope to have it done by the end of April....The pics attached were taken this weekend. Lots to do, need advice.

Also, while your there, we may have you take a look at the 68 Safari, we haven't had much time to play with it either, it's on the back-burner, since we're keeping it....

Does any of this make sense? We'd be happy to pay a consultation fee, or take you out to dinner, and hear your A/S stories.

We're located next to the Botanical Garden. The trailers just a mile down the road.

Hope someone can help.

Thanks,
Ron and Tony....

That is what the forum is for, no need to apologize.

What is left that does not work? It looks like it is all out

If no one can come I am happy to try to help long distance. Let me know what issues you are having and I will do my best.

I may use you Brett

Thanks for tho offer Cavanera said that there were very few in the area that might help. We're hitting the aluminum interior hard this week. When I have a sec to send pics, I'll surely be sending you pics.

If I had extra cash to throw around, I'd send you a ticket, trust me....Now, you COULD always take some time off, and A/S your way up here.....

Of course St. Louis isn't much to see......

I'll be keeping in touch.....
