- Not much remains of the body shell. Other than having to deal with disposing of large fiberglass pieces this has been a fairly straight-forward process.
Been watching your videos. It's amazing to see how these things were put together. I just bought one a few weeks ago.
I guess it’s a bit like archeology, the engineering and methods are impressive.
I just caught this video - and I don't know the whole story - but it's sad to see one of these being scrapped. Way ahead of their time. I got my 76 Palm Beach last fall. looking forward to adventures this year.
It had been in a collision, the rear end and generator took the brunt but repair was possible I guess. The worst part was the entire interior was toast. Having said all that, I bought this at auction because it was cheap and I needed the drivetrain and bogeys, repairability was irrelevant.
The Reason RV's Take So Much To Maintain Wiring Is Due To It Is All Behind Wall Panels & This Presents Labor & RV Labor Repair Is Many Hours & Cost. Why Never Cared For RV's. Your Doing The Labor. I Use Galvanzied Piping For All Wiring & The Galvanized Electric Sockets. Yes It Is An Industrial Look. You Can Paint Your Piping To Blend. When Need To Get To Your Wiring It Is Not Difficult At All. It Also Will Never Allow Mice🐭Or Rates🐀To Chew. This Also Will Keep From Any Fires🔥Developing In Your RV. always, Tommy🤠
G'day great update video
Don't know how far away the person was that wanted the windscreens but they didn't want them badly or they would have come and collected them.
In doing some of my projects i have been prepared to travel a long way for what looks like good quality unobtainium.
Keep building.
Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Where in Australia? I lived in Hallett Cove for 22 years. For the fellow wanting the windscreens it was a case of not being able to justify them when he really didn’t need them.
😢
How much are you looking to get for the windshields and where are you located
I’ve only the drivers windscreen, the kitchen window and the door w/window remaining. San angelo Texas.
@@madebyjnd thank you for your time wish you were closer im in northeast PA
Does that label on the driver windshield mean this was a Copart or other auction purchase?
yes, Copart in Arizona.
Its going to be weeks before you again drive that coach
yes, but not in anything close to it’s original form
