Description

1994 National Dolphin – Renovated Diesel Pusher (Cummins / Allison) – 100,00 miles

We purchased this 1994 Motorhome in 2021 and refurbished this 90’s glory inside and out. We lived in it for 3 years, traveled the entire county, and loved every mile of it. We are the third owners, having purchased it from a diesel mechanic. We have purchased a home and are saying goodbye and letting The Dolphin start it’s next chapter with new owners who will love treasure it like we have, be it full-time or vacationers.

TLDR – Quick Facts on this Motorhome

1993 Cummins 5.9l. 12 Valve. THE bullet Proof motor. Pre-Def

Allison 6 Speed Transmission

Oshkosh Chassis/Frame with Ford Dash components

New Brakes, New Tires

9-11 MPG consistently. We kept diligent re-fuel and maintenance records

30 amp power when on the grid.

Off the grid

Propane Generator for AC

House Batteries for DC

No slides (something I sought out when purchasing after witnessing countless other owners have issues with their slides. Just one less thing to go wrong)

Loads of storage underneath

Spacious, comfy and modern. We spent every spare minute for 8 months updating this bus inside and out.

Includes Tow Dolly

They don’t make ‘em like they used to and this Dolphin is Exhibit A. Easy to access and understand analogue systems. An owner with some patience, know-how, and elbow grease will be greatly rewarded. Like all motorhomes, regular maintenance is required.

Appliance Facts!

Generac Generator

Microwave/Oven combo. Only the oven aspect is working currently however. Microwave feature is not working.

Original kitchen sink, new faucet.

Small TV in Bedroom, Large TV in Living Room.

Dometic Fridge/Freezer

Original. Works excellent when plugged into shore power.

When dry camping it switches to propane. Propane mode works fine, but struggles to keep as cold in direct sunlight, and on multiple consecutive long travel days dry camping. The propane pilot light should just be adjusted for a stronger flame, I never did it. We mostly stayed plugged in.

2 Air conditioning units.

1 in Bedroom, 1 in living room. Only 1 can be run at a time. We never found that to be a problem. We typically alternated living room AC during the day, bedroom AC at night.

Propane furnace for heat. Kept us nice and toasty in the winter.

Fold-out jack-knife couch. Original.

We took the entire couch out and had it reupholstered when we remodeled. Then put the reupholstered couch back in. If you would like to do the same, it is just screws and bolts holding it in.

Tons of storage underneath the couch, seat belts for travel days, and it’s a guest bed for night

Other Updates we made:

We replaced the backup camera and monitor. It stays on all the time when driving so you can keep an eye on your tow

We removed the old dinette and added a counter top with loads of cabinet storage underneath

We pulled up the old carpet and put down hardwood floors

We had the bottom portion of the Dolphin sprayed with Linex

Replaced Mattress with new camper queen hybrid mattress from Brooklyn Bedding. So comfy.

Painted walls. Painted Cabinetry. Added wallpaper in some accent areas

New Thermostats

Replaced Shades and curtains.

Replaced all original light fixtures with modern warm LED fixtures. Sconces now have USB charging, very helpful for charging phones on travel days/dry camping.

Full Disclosure

Every Motorhome has the joys of repairing a MOTOR and a HOME. There is never a dull moment and there is always something you get to address.

The block heater has a short somewhere in the power cord.

It will need to be replaced. Alternatively, the area of the short be located on the wire, cut out, then securely spliced back together.

We live in Georgia so we never had a situation where it was too cold to crank

It has a leaky rear main seal. What diesel from the 90s doesn’t? But as the old mechanic saying goes “you know what it means if it’s leaking oil? It means it’s still got oil”

Hydraulic Leveling system needs to be repaired. We just drove up on leveling blocks whenever we parked.

Some of the “basement storage” or jockey boxes need to have their knobs and hydraulics replaced.

Windows and roof must be sealed regularly. Water is a constant battle in a motorhome

There are areas in need of some love.

The door step can become stubborn if it isn’t greased up, it may need a helping hand retracting or extending.

The Dash AC and heat work fine BUT

You are unable to change where the air blows out from.

The Dolphin has cruise control, but we cannot get it to work anymore

The tube for windshield washer fluid needs to be replaced.

Please reach out with any questions. Serious Inquiries Only Please. The Dolphin is ready to take on your next adventure.
