The gas gauge on the wagon quit a while ago so I picked up a Ford brass float and changed it to night. The old float has gas in it. The gauge moved to about 1/4 so lets hope when I fill it up it will be accurate. Many GM/ Chrysler and Fords use the same float. COAZ-9202-B.

Bought a GMC bus,converted to Motorhome. In the process of making the back end into a hauler for my Altered. Beats dragging a trailer around and I have a place to crash after the races.
