Fin & Mary Beven

South Pasadena, CA

GMC 26' Edgemont

 

 

 

 

 

Fin and Mary Beven are the proud owners of this great looking GMC. They have had it for about 2 1/2 years. In between their many trips with both the "Pacific Cruisers" and "Western States" rallies, they've done quite a bit...

Done up in a pleasing silver and blue, this coach looks alot more modern than when it was new. They did most of the work themselves...

 

Here we see Fin in the process of tearing apart the inside of the coach...

 

And Mary painting cabinets in the kitchen area...

 

Fin added shelves and storage racks to the hanging locker,
and re-located the water pump and filter to the out-side wall.

 

Blue Sea Systems breaker panels control the electric.

 

The completed galley area sports a 4 burner stove, microwave, dual sink, tv, and PLENTY of space!

 

The license plate tells it all!

 

In addition, Fin and Mary have also done basic engine maintenance, plus new final drive, new alternator and "smart" regulator, and new radiator.

In the interior they re-painted the fake-dark-wood a subtle gray. Removed all cabinets that hung down over the windows. Built new cabinets in the aft cabin. New storage in the hanging locker. New water-pump and new Force-10 water-heater.

In the drivers area, Fin re-painted from the "factory brown" to a subtle gray. New Jim Bounds steering wheel, new "Mac" dash. New Norcold refrig, new compressor, new stereo/CD/DVD/ipod player, new 115 vac panel.

Other exterior-mechanical: new Jim K Quad-Bags, new BFG Commercial TA tires
