    Default dormobiles

    Jeremy,
    I can think of 3 or 4 NADA dormobiles off the top of my head.

    There are probably more but who knows?

    I am located in santa cruz ca.

    Santa Cruz. There was a red NADA on eBay a week in or so ago located in Santa Cruz that supposedly pulled Ted Kennedy's car from the water. Ever heard or seen anything about that truck?

    I only see #284 on WCB's website. Is there another or did you get your numbers mixed up?

    Default nada truck in santa cruz

    Jeremy,
    I did go look at that truck..
    Its pretty rusty and in sad shape. It was once very nice. The frame has some repairs, all the door frames are rusted out. Bulkhead looks good. Interior looks very good for its age. Paint is shot, engine doesnt run, hydrualics in bad shape (brakes and clutch)

    certainly not worth the asking price.

    I have NADA number 536, which was completed on November 25th 1966 I believe.

    Still has the orginal paint and interior, both of which are in reasonably good condition - the interior is actually pretty great.

    A few things were changed by the previous owner to make it a bit more to their liking as a long-haul truck - it had a larger heater installed, upgraded electronics, a modern tach, overdrive, and a Chevy 250.

    At the moment, I'm still struggling to find a rad that will fit. Once that's done, I'll be drivin' her around. For now, I overheat after about fifteen kilometers.

    I'm currently working on the radiator thing too. I've got a Chevy 292 in my beastie. Mine is a bit of a kluge of two rads stacked on top of each other and offset to clear the steering relay. There is a rat's nest of hoses connecting all this.

    My design so far is:
    1. 22W X 18H X ?D radiator offset to the right of the steering relay.
    2. I will then mount a 7"W x 12"H X ?D engine oil cooler above the relay. That fills the space nicely.
    3. I'll then mount a 14 X 181/2 X ?D aircon heat exchanger in front of the other two.
    4. I'm now looking at fans and shrouds. My preference would be to stick with the 18" engine fan and build a fan shroud to help efficiency. If this prooves to be a pain in the posterior then I'll just go with 'lecky fans in a shroud from one of the usual suppliers.

    Cheers
