Fuel wouldn't be my concern.............replacement of income would.

Heck... I'd like to hit the road for a year!

What would I do with an extra $ 1k for My Clipper. first thing I though of was fuel, expenses and GO DO SOMETHING.
but that's a given isn't it. got to find the time to go enjoy!!
SO.
I would like to install a new fuel system. everything but the tank.
new 3/8 steel fuel line with an inline elect. fuel pump and fitttings to fill small tanks ect fuel regulator and a hi volume mecanical pump on the engine and use the electic as a back up pulling hills all with good parts that would proabably take 200 $
a central vacuum system cost ? maybe 125. and do it myself.
got the carpet so some glue to lay the new stuff down. 10
one of those air filters which has the snorkles on them to get some good freash cool out side the dog house air. 200.00$
new front shocks or air bags? something to help take the top heavy feel the coach has when turning and in the wind. I need to post a ? to find what anyone else has done to help this or maybe there isn't a lot a guy can do for this.
that would proabably use up the grand but I would sure try and leave enough to buy a bottle of Cpt Morgans, ice and soda :lol:
Leg up
Cheers
R
