Vehicle description

Beautiful 1983 Airstream motorhome 310, P30 Chevy Chassis, excellent shape 83000 miles with used newer engine installed only 17000 miles on.
Has a used newer 454 engine put in, from a 1991 SS Chevy truck that had 17 000 miles
Engines sounds and runs great. Very quite on the highway!
So this newer engine, has miles done on a light truck compare to this beast. So almost like a new engine!
We purchase it in April 2021 in Tucson where it was sitting under a metal RV carport for 20 years. The 2nd owner (our seller) was a engineer and kept it and maintained it in good condition. We drove it back to Austin TX, it was very silent, no play in the steering, the engine has great power, so is the transmission, it drove perfect, braking perfect as well ! Very confortable and safe to drive ! We are selling our house and moving overseas, and bought this RV to be able to stay in if we needed more time in the US before leaving ship there and stay in before we could find something.
Some of you might have seen it posted for sale in July I think, with oil pump issues with the engine and no clear and open title, there was a misspell in the Vin Number and had to transfer it from Arizona to Texas but wasn’t running for the Vin inspection and State inspection !
As of today Nov 20th 2021, it’s all been taken care off. The Motor-home runs great. I am waiting for the Texas Bonded Title in my name any day now.
I am trying to see if I can have the front dash AC working all the main parts are there except for the lines. So right now the front grill and bumper are out. If it sales it will takes about an hour to put back together with or without the AC working depending if I have time to get it done.
Great Body, pretty clean interior, frame has no rust what so ever but some in the battery compartment door but very good overall.
Water system works, Fridge work on 110V and gas.
The 2 Ceiling AC works, the Onan Generator starts.
Not sure about the gas water heater and the furnace. Won’t have time to look at that.
So what’s new with the engine swap.
The engine is a 454 v8 kind of like a NOS New Old Stock from a 1991 truck that only had 17000 miles
The 2 home batteries plus some of the cables.
New 105a Alternator
New 110 Battery Isolator and cables
All the engine radiator cooling hoses
the flexibles oil cooling line
New power steering/brake pump and lines
The radiator is aluminum not new from me but from the seller I got it from. There was no issues with overheating.
new spark plug
new Ignition Coil, Distribution cap, and rotor
Nice interior, great rear bed option with the panoramic windows, the couch turns into a kingsize bed in 20 seconds. Have lots of pics and videos, ask for them.
We are moving in mid December back to France and don’t have time to deal with it anymore.
This is a very nice quiet, Motorhome. with a good engine now.
If interested, call or text me at 5I2 35O 3I89 leave a message as I usually don’t answer unknown numbers (too many commercial calls) and I will call you right back. No low ballers, No tire kickers, if we don’t sale it know we will be glad to enjoy it on our next visit in the US.
What happened to the engine in the first place?
We put it in storage once we got back from Tucson, we took it for a spin to go camp one weekend and we had an engine issue. It was driving, great as usual, then it started making some noise just a bit, I looked at the dash and saw that there were no more oil pressure, I was able to coast it to the next gas station that was not far. Stop it called a tow truck and it has been at a mechanic that can’t work on it because his garage bay doesn’t open enough !
So it looks like the oil pump was out ! When you 1st start the engine, it will have oil pressure for a bit and then the pressure goes and the noise will start. Perfect body!
