GMC Jacke's van

I could use the van as my mobile office!!!

Yes, you could do a "Doctors in" sign and park at van events! Kinda like Lucy on the Peanuts cartoon. But, in a Dr. Phil kinda way! 

I see u...

So, is the backup camera working well for you?

Actually I have not hooked it up yet! I just installed the camera and placed the monitor.
I need to tie into the power and the front switch. I do not do electrical unless broken down... LOL so maybe this weekend... I hope to get the dual battery set up installed, Rich is going to do it, I will just had tools and give thanks.
I have the Yellow Top Optima deep cycle battery... the Switch... just awaiting the powder coated drop down battery box and wires I ordered to come. Should have all the trappings by Thursday. So soon I will be able to listen to my music when parked without too much worry about starting the van to go home. 
Updates this weekend!!

My friend helped me sew my back door curtains. I do not have a machine anymore...lucky for me cause I am not a good sewer like my friend Joyce. 
I attached them simple with three snaps! easy enough done in ten minute with the install.

That’s one Fancy Shmantzy interior you’ve got there!

Well the curtains do match the front...of coarse. Yes, I guess it is a bit fancy rather than plain. I like the finer things in life when I can get them...

You travel in Style! We’re in the same time zone right now...we got as far as Needles, Ca but now we’re in Arizona and heading back towards New Mexico via Rte 66! Having a Fantastic trip and will remember it forever. We even had lunch today at In & Out Burger 🍔!

Well enjoy! Have some good food and fun too!

Getting my van ready for the Lady's Night show... I was invited this year. That was a nice surprise!
Not that many Lady's with their own classic car rides...  but I am the only woman owned classic  van that shows up. Should be a nice evening going to be 84 during the daytime. Glad I have that air tunnel   and hamburger fan!

Cool, if you get a chance, please take a few pics! Otherwise , it never happened...

Yes sir! I will be in the promenade area with all the best classics... so I will for sure take some pictures... not just of my van LOL! But mostly...of my van 

Went to Lady's Night at the car show... here is a cute shot of a father and daughter notice the exact pose on each! She is a future van girl!

Looks Great! I bet your van got a LOT of attention!

I finally put on my California van cover. Fits nice and I love the sexy black! I wanted a little extra protection in the tent for Goldie.

It’s like a black Négligée!!! Woob woob woo! Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk!

Yes and she is wearing nothing underneath!!
Thats my "Goldie" Hawn... Beautiful in black!

 I was very lucky today. My friend VANagain, Rich... installed my dual battery set up! The pictures tell the story. I assisted and installed the switch, small stuff. Mean while Rich was drilling and wiring the set up. He worked and worked got it done!! Now I can listen to my muduc without a battery fail! THANKS RICH 

Nice piece of Teamwork!!!

Yes we are very different types... he is very methodical and precise... I am full speed ahead and let's go! So he keeps me grounded, and I get him moving. Good team, I wish I had more to offer in the form of knowledge. But, what I lack in know how, I make up for with enthusiasm~

The picture is pretty good for a wireless setup!

I went back over to have Rich do the panel wiring for the switch panel... it was way far beyond my capabilities. Now I have the pane which will monitor the volts on each battery and provide two phone chargers and a usb plug. Now I can install it into the panel. That I can do, four screws...LOL
AGAIN, THANK YOU RICH!

I thought this would be the ultimate way to mount an auxiliary battery in our vans, so you don't have to cut a hole in the floor to get access to it. It's not like you're going to need to get at this battery very often anyway but when you do, you unhook the two latches and it drops down about 6 or 7 inches.

This is the it up in its stowed configuration:



And here it is dropped. The bolt holes are in a good spot to bolt through our frame.



You could put it behind the main battery, or on the other side.

I got my New Chromed Horn Ring and GMC cap back today! I had to return it the first time around due to a few blemishes. So finally got it back and I am satisfied... and very happy !
