  1. lol kinda looks Macgyvered abit too , tack left side of steering wheel mounted above vent, possibly compass on dash and left side look through bottom of steering wheel , looks like something hooked up with a dial or ? Wish they would reply back and or it was closer too...
  2. Bailing wire and duck tape is a man's ( person's ) best friend... lol Can you get underneath it ? wrap a couple metal clothes hangers around it and tie it up to frame etc ... Local muffler shop should be able to fix ya right up.
  3. Maybe up there ? But I live in sunny CA. outside temp right now is 82 degrees .... for Oct this is unusual temps....
  4. I've tried a couple times to email them , no reply . If it is as clean as the photos look and true on the mileage I'd fly up and get it... On further looking at the photos no roof mount a/c and can't tell if it has cab a/c either ??

  8. I clicked on a CL (Sacramento) add for a Toy Dolphin (it has since been removed) I emailed and asked a couple questions , here is her reply; Hello, My name is Kristine, and I am emailing you about the 1990 TOYOTA DOLPHIN V-6 21(25,586 miles) that I have for sale. The motorhome is in immaculate condition, with no need for additional repairs. It has never been involved in an accident. Flawless exterior/interior condition. Here are some interior details: corian counter tops, lots of kitchen pantry, RV 2 way refrigerator,3 gas burner, convectional oven, sofa opens up to a full bed, 2 AC, 21 feet lenght, 5 persons sleeping capacity. The price is reduced at $2,770 as I need to sell it before 17th next month when I will start my new job, for which I will have to travel all over the world, and to be honest I don't want the motorhome to get old in my backyard. If you have any other questions, or need more info, please free to ask. For more pics of the motorhome open this link: http://www.use.com/9cf188890dbe3670b8d0 So on another email to her I asked to set a time to come look at it. Her next email was it was actually in Phoenix AZ she lives in Oklahoma and it was all set up in some Amazon Blah Blah Blah .....
  9. Well I called the guy on it , he seemed pretty cool at first , then when I started asking questions : is there any dry rot , how old are the tires etc... His demeanor started to change a bit.. I had mentioned that I had been looking at a lot of them and his comment was oh your a looky lou , kinda hit me wrong , I said no it was that what the people were saying and not showing in the photos was not adding up... He said he still had it , so I'll call him this weekend and possibly go up and look at it.. LINDA S Do you recall what the asking price was for it on e-bay ?
  10. http://sacramento.craigslist.org/rvs/3353438914.html What's your first impressions on this one ?
  11. As for the sides being Aluminum , When you swing the door all the way open and it has that little plastic tee that slides into the catch to hold the door open , well there was a hole right above receiver (catch ) that the tee had put into the side. The hole on the pass side rear corner gouge and then tried to be filled with chalking looked like fiberglass. But on the back pic #2 obviously shows it dented (aluminum siding )and below that it is gouged through and somewhat filled with chalking. I was so pumped up to go see it and what a let down when we got there and saw it, I mean the pics look great, but once there and looked it all over then when I got back home and looked at the add again I just had to laugh , it was like this person got a professional photographer to take the pictures , I mean every one except pic #2 showing the dent and gouge on the back , everything else are all shot at angles to not show from the ripped up drivers seat , to the holes in the sides etc... The one in Auburn was it the one that has the top left marker light lens missing ? Also if it is ? The right front marker/blinker lens is missing as well. I haven't gone to look at it yet... But then again I've looked at so many online I maybe thinking of the one in Grass Valley being the one I described above... Thanks for the replies ,
  12. My first post and figured here would be the best place to post it. Been looking for a Dolphin for awhile now , Craigslist , Local papers , RV places.. So I came across this one http://sacramento.cr...3350485665.html Pictures looked pretty good, high on the price I thought... Call the # talk to the guy , set up a time to go look at it today. There wasn't one thing good I could say about it , except maybe the passenger door shut ok lol.. Every corner had hit something or been hit by something,(note how the pictures were taken not showing damage) The sides are fiberglass and had holes in quite a few places some patched with silicone to just plain holes, to the I guess typical lift the cushions up top for the sleeper and dry rot in the corners, to opening up one of the little outside storage compartments in the back and find a rats nest in and around the plumbing to the rat poop in the bottom shelves next to the toilet. I opened the hood and the whole engine looked pitted , hard to explain maybe some will know what I mean when I say its like when an old motorcycle has sat out in the weather the aluminum cases etc are whitish and pitted... Front tires were LT tires but were different makes to the rear tires couldn't tell what the inside dully tires were , but the outside tires one was LT and the other was just a P tire. To me this would be something to pick up for maybe $1K and put $5K into it to make it roadworthy... I have gone to look at about 5 so far and everyone has been a pile of $hit... Are my expectations too high to be looking for a decent Toy- MH at a decent price ???
