You boys need to make a full length movie, I’d pay to see that. Love your channel, I about wet my pants from laughing at your shenanigans getting those old rigs running. Thanks for bringing some humor into my week, I so do appreciate it.

The commercial you were thinking of was for "Mr. Microphone" The guy says "hey good looking, we'll be back to pick you up later." ❤ the 70s and 8os advertising 😂

The battery isolator controller prevents you from running down the main batteries if you run the 12v accessories if the engine is not running. In other words, if you run your interior lights until the batteries are run down, you can still start the engine.

The 2 6 Volt Batteries hooked up in Series are the House Batteries. There is supposed to be a 12 Volt Starter Battery next to the House Batteries.

Id love to see a part 2 to this and maybe a pressure wash before and after !💗💗

Hi, I'm Andy. I liked seeing how you revived this RV truck. I would like to see the second part, seeing this truck driving on the road. Excellent work, guys. Congratulations. 😉👏🖐 

God be with you both hank! Keep up the videos like this. Love the “will this pile of junk start”!!! Love it!!!!

This was impressive! I have never seen so many gravity checks as you and Wally tried to do the battery install. The lead in those terminal bolts was trying to get back to mother earth. Must have been all the lead in them. Great video as always.

Yall need to get up with Commander Todd at Project Farm and ask him about the armabago. It's a big block that pullos trees over and such. Bible is coming truer every day! BLESSINGS!

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Good job guys on this old rv. Not much left of it. All used up I would say. Lots of different systems on these units. You guys did great. It’s going. Thanks for everything. Take care hank and Wiley. The Iowa Farm Boy.

Not a bad little find as long as the structure is there, great start up, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

All I know about RVs is that they are big gas hogs. This one looks like it is well past its prime days. May be a good candidate for the scrap yard since it would cost more to refurbish than what it is worth.

You two are so fun! God bless you both!

Could you have pulled the grill off the front to gain easier access to the batteries? Looked that way on the video 🤔

Awesome job on the gas engine for a change, you all did good on this one. Makes you wonder at one time how much fun maybe a family had using that bad boy. I appreciate you guys having clean fun. I will be in Mexico City Beach at the end of May if you want to buy me some shrimp and fish at Cat 5's.... LOL

Now that was fun to watch , I own what we call a Motorhome in Scotland I had a 6 berth kontiki 2.5 diesel for over ten years and it was a 89’ I sold it last year just £500 less than I originally bought it for, your video on this brings back many happy memories,these can easily be stripped and refitted quiet easily as long as damp hadn’t got in to the floor or sides otherwise it a strip to framework and if you going that far may be worth strip it all out and re kit it with newer fittings ect and 44k on miles is that first time or second time around ?? I did around 40k mikes in my ownership abd it was close to the 100k mark when I sold mine so it hardly done any miles if they genuinely correct . Just keep putting up these videos I love my Saturday night Hamiltion farm show .

The other two batteries are for the starter and the other one is for the stuff on the RV itself

I grew up near Sayre PA and had a grandfather that worked at Jim’s , very cool to see an RV from there!! Thanks again for another great video 😎

That Generator would run if you put some propane in the the Rv it’s not gas or diesel it runs off propane awesome video looks like a lot fun

@8:30 You're referring to 'Mr. Microphone' The short range FM wireless microphone that would transmit to any FM radio on the tuned frequency. Just flip it on, and talk to anyone nearby. "Hey good looking, be back to pick you up later!"

That little onan would be wonderful as a backup generator. The one I found had a 2 cylinder flat engine, like half a VW beetle engine.

Enjoy watching you 2 getting these old pieces of equipment running with your jokes and carrying on with on another thanks for the videos

That dipstick went back to the differential 🤣😂🤣😂

Hey Hank, quick suggestion, see if you can pick up a good old fashioned G.I. surplus machete, use a magnet to fasten it to the lid of the toolbox, and you’ll have something for the weeds, and small trees and such , God bless you both, enjoy y’all’s videos, take care , see y’all later

THE LOWER GRILLE is hinged at the top for easier access! You will also want to hook up your 12 volt battery to the cables for your left. This is the battery for the engine and chassis.

I loved the “hummus” joke. To quote Larry the cable guy “ I don’t care who you are, that’s funny right there!”

2 guys having fun together that's what I like to see 😉👍

That's awesome! First successful gas "will it start" ! Congratulations fellas!! 😎👍 Maybe ya'll should buy that, travel the country........you could call it "Hank and Wily's RV adventures" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Take care and God bless guys!

I'd sure like to have that generator.

New to the channel and loving it! I'm a kinda fixer my self lol, I was laughing with you guys. I was thinking to myself I could make this look good lol. That looked awesome 👍 when cleaned up you guys are a blessing.

Hank on the rats, chewing spark, plug wires. I've always heard that they use vegetable oil when pulling the layers together making them that's why the rats chew on them.

I'd love to own a RV like that,I'd have it and live in it year round...of course this one needs a little work ,but it's what I've always wanted.✌️ Great video,you guys finally got something started 😀😀😀 lol! God bless!

The space for another battery is most likely for a coach battery to run interior lights and water pump. Great vidio. Thanks

That commercial from the 70’s was Mister Microphone 🎤 “Hey good lookin’ be back to pick you up later” 😂

Hey Hank hey Riley I love watching Used to are so funny specially Hank go to ease up on our Riley eight but I still think you are a good working team so keep up the good work guys talk to you soon God bless

Just as it sits right now - not cleaned up - Cousin Eddy would love to own that motor home! Hopefully, the rubber sheets and the gerbils are optional!

what i’d do is carry spark plug wires so if you needed a set to test something or just a wire in this case. you need to check the oil in the gen. summer starting/ spring onwards. winter setting. usually you’d go out run stuff and or plug your rv in to keep stuff up. neglects gets you mid evil mess

This reminded me of the old '78 Allegro my late wife (passed away almost 24 years ago) and I bought and fixed up. It has basically the same floor plan. The batteries were in a slide out tray on the driver's side of the rig. We had a lot of fun in that thing even though it did try our patience a few times with the breakdowns but it was well worth everything just to enjoy the trips in it. That 454 Chevy engine was really strong. The worst thing we had happen was the trip down to south Florida when we pulled into a BP station (we should have known) and got a bunch of water in the fuel tanks. The generator was the first thing to fail and after that it was a battle just to get it back home. I had to drive with my foot on the floor and hope no state trooper was in a bad mood that day. We made it home just as the fuel began to clear up and I could drive it like normal. The one time I needed fuel alcohol and NOBODY had any! It didn't seem to hurt the engine any and the Onan started right up once I drained and flushed the carburetor bowl. If I had the time left, and the money to fix it up, I'd love to have this old rig. None of the modern computerized junk to have to fight with. A trip to Lowe's pretty well provides everything you need to repair it.

Hank whilly you make my day thank you for a great video can't wait for next one

Thank you Hank, I appreciate your APPRECIATION

A lot of these old RVs had an extra battery for starting but ran on 2 batterys but the relays often burnt out and were disconnected or bypassed.

Amazing job Hank and Wiley!!! Really enjoyed this video. First gas success!!!

I've got a 92 Fleetwood Coronado and its probably 70% similar. Bought it started it drove it home 60+miles a year ago. It will crank right up. Mine has a 12v and supposed to have 2 6 volts for house power but I've yet to completely figure that out. It seems the 2 6v would power the crank on the generator and ..... The Odometer (led)? Although the 12v house power seems to only come off the converter after generator being started. I really love it just wish I was better at carpentry and such. The engine runs and drives but seems as its been sitting most of its life. If I wanted to get that engine and transmission to top shape what would be best recommendations. I would love to take a 2k mile trip in it. any suggestions are appreciated.

Boa tarde muito ótimo esse serviço carro tão bonito amigo

Those 454 engines are high in demand.

Good to see you Fella’s, Sayre is On North Border of Pa., as I am Directly South & Setting on the Southern Border, Both Central East & West. Far Too Cold on that Spectrum, I’m about done with it now and I’m on the South Coast. I’ll take the Deadly Snakes, I’m Done W/ Cold!

Glad to see wily again you and him again Calvin Dayton ohio.

Hey guys just a some friendly advice about your the best ground for your test light. The key in the ignition is the best ground.

I haven't watched in a long time now but if there was a channel I would watch it's you and Wiley hands down😊

Next time when you guys work in the field like this have a tarp of something like that under so when you drop a tool or part slide it out and get it then put the tarp back under the project.

I have a 1990 Fleetwood Pace Arrow very similar to that one, mine has a 454 with a turbo 400 transmission and a gear vendors under/overdrive system

just found me a little old 5th wheel im gonna restore, yall made me feel less stupid when lookin for snakes haha

Hank tries to dip on food again lol😂😂😂

Love your new Ford it's pretty cool for an older model

This is probably on a workhorse p30 chassis I would think, it should have some kind of drum break on the tailshaft of the transmission if it is. I have a 2000 Condor RV with the last gen 454

Half the time I'm expecting Hank to say Git er done!!

This video first time came to my KZfaq channel... nice 🎊 •watching from Melaka, Malaysia 🇲🇾✌🏻

That commercial was Mr. Microphone 😅

I think you guys need a small engine mechanic like my self to help you guys.. but you guys did awesome 👍😎

Who Pooted ?? It's sad that people let these things go to waste.. Thanks Guys...

Again a great watch gentleman that ole girl is ready for a cleaning 👍👋🇨🇦

Great job great video thanks Hank and Wylie

Unfortunately that unit has major water damage inside as you can see on the walls where the moisture destroyed the wood. You could rebuild it but it would require complete rebuild.

Дякую за любов до стареньких авто

Hey, we need part 2 thanks 😊👍

That's going to need one heck of a shop vac!

love watching these guys

something different mates great job. god bless all of you.

After watching this video I decided to subscribe. I've seen you around the KZfaq a little bit but never watched a video. Motorhomes are my thing. I'm going through one right now and I started out just like you two trying to get it started. Except I hold mine to a Walmart parking lot and did the will it run there. Good luck and rock on fellas!

Good job and God bless yall

I think those old Fleetwoods sit on Chevrolet P30 chassis. They also used those for busses i believe

Most RV's have a switch on the dash to start the generator

I rebuilt a 1984 Chevy pace arrow. Three year rebuild lol You guys are in for it lol Good luck !!! Lol

Great job! Love the video as always

Yeah us CBers had PA (Public Address) systems that hooked the a speaker under the hood to whistle at the pretty 🤩 stuff walking on the street. 😂

Love the show, I think partly because you guys are close to my age, and remember and talk about things I remember and can relate to. Keep up the good work.

Hank that is a good show to watch columobo I watch him all the time awesome just had to let you know thanks

48:13 THATS WHAT MATT FROM DIESEL CREEK PUT ON LAST YEAR ALMOST!

Cool video Hank and Wiley, when are you going on your first road trip together? 😆👊👊

yep looks the same as chicken andy his Fleetwood Bounder from breaking bad it was live iirl to the eastcoast and back. nice to see the restauration on this one......

The air filter is the black round with the green sprayed on it above the start switch.

an immense but not impossible restoration project, the only problem is the chassis because if it's rotten it's all to be thrown away, you save the engine 🤔

Good luck..finely you made, it..by the way, Did you find the Air Cleaner wing nut..?😊

The BEST place for this thing is the junkyard. I had a '93 Pace Arrow and it was all I could do to keep it maintained. RVs that old and sitting for that long develop mold and rot and are totally unrepairable. I guess if you are a scavenger who enjoys messing around with these things more power to you. I made the mistake of trying to drive mine across the US and had nothing but problems. There wasn't an RV place that would look at it because it was too old. Unless the previous owner(s) meticulously maintained it by regular service, both the drivetrain and the body to prevent water intrusion and kept it in a climate-controlled environment, forget it.

my travco has 4 house batteries under the stairs, a battery in the generator box and by the drivers wheel is a battery for the engine and a master switch for them all by the stairs for them all, im not lookin foward to when I start doing the work on it to change out alllll the batteries lol

The two 6 volts are in series for 12 volts. Theyare only for the coach. There is one 12 volt for the chassis.

You guys are fun!! Love the channel. Greetings from Southern California. God Bless you both; John 14:6.

19:28 no get Wiley, that chair lift that they have at pools for disabled swimmers assistance

There is a couple of switches above the coach door marked main and aux the 2 6 volt batteries are for the coach 12 v accessories and are wire in series to create 12 v a single 12 v battery runs the motorhome itself and the driving systems

Did you look for a bank of switches on the side of the stairs going into the RV? many RVs have their coach battery under those stairs. If that's not connected, no go. Most RVs are a 12v system.

Cool, will it start Hank and Wiley? I appreciate you guys sharing this awesome video 👍

Crank it up Wiley lol😂

Hank, You know better than to say he would get shocked from 12 volts Right? You can get burnt but never shocked Hank also You have to spray the either Down the Open Choke. You did not gwt any into the engine the first spray

Great job gentlemen 💪

Those 6v batteries are series together to make 12v and they are only for the inside 12v lights and water pump and anything 12v RV related should be a 12v battery to start motor in there

A low-mileage big block that would make a good motor for a pickup or a 1-ton dump. Surprised it started usually when gasoline sets that long it goes bad and won't hardly burn. I think that's more like an Oh -no generator

The 2 6vt batteries are for the rv side and the empty space was for a 12v for the engine!!!😊

You two are almost competent on the diesel side. I’m thinkin y’all ain’t got no business over on the gas side. Cept it does make for entertainment so what the heck. Another good one. I think you should have taken a lap around the hayfield. Hank got nervous about no brakes but that dry land tugboat isn’t likely to roll more than 4 feet once you stop pressing on the go pedal. I woulda gone for it. 🥸👀🔧🔨👍✅
