The Flyte Camp folks did a display at the vintage RV portion of Hot August Nights last year. They had one of their recreated vintage coaches on display. Looked old school, but had all the modern features. Their attention to detail was impressive. it actually looked better finished than a new Airstream that was also on display. And this surprises...=anybody=?  Lyle Flyte Camp folks had a TV show on for a few years but have not seen them on lately, was pretty cool seeing how they rebuilt some of the old trailers ....They are in Oregon an often though about driving down just to see their operation ...

Looks good, yeah, what a find. It's interesting to see how colors have changed. Colors? =Style=, more like. :-) I know my '04 Komfort was pretty dated when we sold it, but at least it was more earth tones; muted greens, with hints of yellow and orange with a beige background. I've said for a long time that, IMO, the interior colors and patterns were designed by old hippies from the '60's having acid flashbacks. :-) Lyle We had a '94 Jayco with similar floor plan and those same colors. We thought it looked great in the 90s! But I would bet every one of us enjoyed those just as much as we do the new ones we have today. Jay |

Well we had to do our first repair, furnace blower motor had bad bearings. New motor $50 and a couple hours, I'm now a Hyro Flame service tech. Getting the squirrel cages off the shaft was the worst part of the job. Had scratch my head for a short time, new motor had female connector when it needed to be male. Thought it may have been the wrong one, cut, change connector and works like new .... it is new. Burner looks like it may have been used a couple times still all shinny & no rust.

Strange the bearings went, but it happens. Good that you were able to fix it yourself.

Those sealed bearing from years ago were pretty good. The majority of furnace repairs I did were digging bugs and their nests out of the burners. |
