Yes, but it's tricky to keep the Archimedes screw in place while you replace a section. Needs a new hatch too. Was thinking of making a new stainless steel barrel for mixing margaritas.

Or add a burner and make popcorn . Either way you would be a big hit at truck shows.

I had to Google what a Archimedes screw was, I learn something new every day, and every thread. Thank you for posting the video, I very much enjoyed watching it. You have done some amazing work on her that not just anybody could step up and do. Rock On Bob.

Thank you. This is a been-there-done-that adventure, only this time I'm not getting paid for it. Still have to finish up the brakes and some minor electrical, and install the air ride seat. Might be ready for the first drive in a month.
