Just hoping to get input from trojan owners since his bo...

Gotta get more of the new carpet, curtains, etc. Totally redone, inside and out.

318 engine block drain plug(s)

So it sounds like we're looking for 4 plugs then. Okay. No place for a bucket in the enigine compartment so we'll be connecting a length of hose to reach from the deck to the intake in order to get the antifreeze into her. Buckets on the exhaust to catch what's going through and a bucket under the h...

We bought a 1973 Trojan F25 Express late last year. The rear deck was rotted through so walking on it was a challenge. That was replaced as our first project. We have torn out the original carpet. Also removed all the wood that was removable and brought it home to refinish over the winter. Nearly do...
