Wanted to say hello, Site has been alot of help as of late. Picked up a 77' Chinook last month from a good friend and have been getting it ready ever since.
Some may have seen pics of it on other sites. These pics are from BlazerChalet.com from previous owners I assume. Only way I know it is the exact same one I now have is the sticker locations and the wonderful AC unit in the window. Makes the truck SO much nicer.
So far the thing runs like a top. Just did some standard maintanence and tune up. THe alternator was shot. Got a new alternator and isolator, replaced the water pump for the rear sink. and replaced the carpet all throughout.
Have to get some pics of the mods. So far everything sems to work fridge, electronics. Just need to test the propane lines for the stove and the heater. It is all still original. Only thing looking rough is the T-trim going around the counters, and I have some U channel on order to cap all of that off.
Looks like it will be ready for many trips away.
I am a Toyota addict. Have a 66' Land cruiser, 94' Pickup now buggy, and 99' Corolla. This just adds to the list.
Now I am hooked on the RV's
Thanks alot, hope to help where I can, I do know a lot on Toyotas, and can share info as much as possible.
