    I'm going out on a limb here and guessing "No"
    ....And the resourcefulness of the Niko Brothers teaches me a lesson on commenting before watching the whole video. 😂😂😂. Well done guys! 👍

    Not sure that it will be a restorable motorhome, but the chassis and running gear are definitely worth it to put under a less damaged motorhome if you can find one or just sell the chassis.

    I have this model. The insurance company and Winnebago cut out the section where the fire started, to do analysis. They have determined that an electric junction box under the refrigerator shorts out. A recall has been announced to fix it. The leak is radiator fluid to the hot water heater. It routs hot engine antifreeze to a coil in the hot water heater so that you have hot water available to the sink while driving on the road. Obviously the hot water heater was damaged.

    Got to say i just love your content guys, i would repair the walls and roof and do a high end custom refit, cant wait to see what you do, all the best from Scotland.

  • @realmccoy7503
    @realmccoy7503 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Amazing deal driving 700 miles al the way, and yes i think you guys can fix this one, just make it customized inside, go to scrapyards to find stuff you can use buy a lot of wood and its already almost as new, for the part that is cut out by the firedepartment to fight the fire i would suggest making a in/out compartment which give a little extra for lets say a bedroom or a tv room or otherwise , but some metal and a bit of welding it goes back in the original mode just as easy, only need to match the paint, or sell it for arround 10k as is and buy a even bigger better one........great video..... love to see more.

    That wireless backup camera is a nice piece of gear. You can take it with you on all trips. Too bad the fire wasn't shown. Nice chassis.

  • @stephenricketts7764
    @stephenricketts7764 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Looks like a 'basket case' as far as repair but the running gear and chassis will be worth quite a bit with low mileage. Hey the plywood can be very useful! Thanks for sharing the video Brothers. 👍

  • @BrianEBoyd
    @BrianEBoyd 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I worked at Marathon Coach my guess all the damaged wiring is just for the lights and accessories. Drive train should be fine. But I recommend stripping it to the chassis and star over.

    Such a Copart move, that’s borderline deception to not disclose the extent of the damage

    • @TheMarpalm
      @TheMarpalm ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So in copart’s defense you can hire someone very easily to look at the vehicle and take lots of additional pictures. Does not cost too much.

    • @patrickrooney5130
      @patrickrooney5130 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

    So glad to finally see a mask on your face driving that RV , the fumes coming off burnt plastics and plywood can be very carcinogenic and a n95 isn't going to get it all so get plenty of ventilation going through that thing if you are working on it.

    Hi fellas,
    I enjoy a good flip but sometimes we get a little excited and roll the dice. “There’s no interior pics but hey it might not be too bad?!”😁 If you’ve enjoyed flipping then we’ve all been there.
    I take my hat off to you guys. I probably would have walked away and put it back into the auction. Sometimes you win and sometimes you loose and you guys will do ok out of the chassis. If you guys have the foresight and drive to go further and actually make it into something usable then you guys deserve a medal!
    Love your work!
    Cheers from Oz 👍👍🍻

    • @randykennedy7444
