Some things that still need attention:



Large awning has a tear in the fabric

Some areas of the original wood/particleboard interior pieces are damaged. Veneer pealing in spots, some water damage in the passenger rear.

Mount for shower head missing.

Carpet in the cab doesn't cover entire floor area.

I haven't tested the furnace, not sure if it works. Some of the ducting is not hooked up.

I haven't tested the refrigerator, not sure if it works. The electronic unit in the bottom isn't hooked up.

The fiberglass is damaged where the passenger side rear wheel T-Skirt mounts and the T-Skirt has some damage.


With all the work that has been done the motorhome is in great condition and should be reliable,

but it is almost fifty years old and there will be issues that arise due to it's age.

With that in mind, the motorhome is being sold AS-IS with no returns or warranty.
