I want to talk to THAT GUY about what seatbelt he was using. A perfect
example of a shoulder belt being a very good thing.

Check it out closely. This one shows it was sold at auction on Dec 28, 2011 in Mobile, Al with the same mileage.

With those Alcoas, etc., that would be a good buy at $2000!

Tom, I might take those seats if you buy it and the weather hasn't ruined
them. :-)

The company - Copart - wants to sell only to dealers, or at least that's what they told me.  Or I can have one of their 'partners' bid for me - for a fee.  Scam to themax.

Following the links and searching GMC's leads not to that one, but it does

Actually that varies by state. I can bid at Copart in Indiana but not in Illinois.

One time when Tom Burke was around I went to a Hammond, Indiana location for a Bidder friend of his in Whitehorse, YKT.

He also was going to send me to Wisconsin for another one, but the fell through.

Ken,

I clicked on Vininspect and got this link:

https://www.vininspect.com/en/check-vin-number-and-get-the-vehicle-history-report/checkout/TZE167V100636/?a_aid=51e92fbc32aea

As you noted it sold December 28, 2011.

Kelvin,

I can't see any over the shoulder belt in any of the photos, am I blind? ;-)

The one going up for auction March 6 is near me. Although not interested in a burned out hulk. A good example of why we need a fire suppression system in our GMCs.

Ken,
That coach you turned up for salvage which was well cooked gave an interesting shipping estimate to Adelaide South Australia of US$2740. We can not even import a car for that price so I do not know how they arrived at that price for a GMC coach, probably should be $12,740.

Ken,
We don't buy scrap metal (even though some of the vehicles that have been imported should have gone for scrap metal)we sell it like the US do to China so they can make further products (rubbish) from it and sell it back to us.
I agree though that coach is scrap metal pretty much.
