Hi, all... I got a call (via the Blacklist) from the owner of this coach, and he "wants it gone". Yes, it sounds like he's VERY motivated, so I'd suggest giving him a call and ignoring his (I think very ambitious) asking price of $8,500. Apparently the rig has a brand new rebuild on the 403. Don't know much beyond that.

His contact info is in the ad. Hope someone can get this rig back on the road (it's been in storage for years at this point).

The listing says it is in "good" condition and that it is "green" with 300 miles and has "great gas mileage". If that is "good" and "green" then my Palm Beach (still original green etc. and needs a paint job etc.) is in "show room" condition and only gets 9.5 MPG on a good day with a tail wind.

$8,500 is too high and who knows about the quality and age of the "fresh engine built 403 olds". I'd give no more than $2,500.

I suspect he'd take $2,500.
