Just an observation. There is (was) no such thing as a "1973 Royale" There wasn't any Transmodes until 1975. (So in 1973, Coachman wouldn't have had a shell to up-fit as a Royale.)

There were a few Royales in 1975, but they really didn't start production until 1976. Most Royales where produced in 1978.

Granted, if you have a 1973, you could CALL it anything you want! Twisted Evil

It is 1973 vintage. Some PO pasted a Royale decal on the side of it.

Figured something like that.

I once can across a "1975 Birchaven" on Criagslist. It even had full 1978 Birchaven decals.

It turned out to be an 23 foot AVION! (much rarer model.)

Anyway the interior parts would be different between a 1973 GM coach and a Royale of any year. Some other, non-interior parts a a bit different also.

Regardless of what you want to call it, it will soon be scrap. I would think the VIN would tell what model it is.

I will check as to usability. Rust on outside but I think they are still functional.
