There is a new listing on the Tucson Craig's List that I just noticed:
http://tucson.craigslist.org/rvs/2445075074.html
I have seen this coach, and looked at it about three years ago when it had been for sale at that time. The owner wanted $9,000.00 for it back then and I don't know if it has been improved enough to be worth the current asking price.
The coach has Weld 16" wheels on it, a weird rear L-shaped bunk bed arrangement in the back, no stove top or oven (he used an electric hot-pad for cooking, a new headliner (fabric), newer carpet, and a whole laundry list of things that had been done to the coach over a period of years.
I passed on it at the time because of several factors, not the least of which was a strong rodent smell inside the coach, accompanied by a few dead mice in traps. When I asked him when the "new' gas lines had been installed, he scratched his head a little and said "oh, about nine years ago" That sort of thing told me I was better off buying a coach in better shape, which is what I ended up doing.
If anyone would like any more info on it, I have some old pics I took when I looked at it, and could make arrangements to go and see it.

hmmmm.. 454, like new tires...

Yeah, it had a 'rebuilt' 455 in it when I looked at it and the tires were fairly new three years ago. I don't know about the generator. I thought it was a 6-K Power Drawer. Who knows??? Obviously the owner does not belong to this group or he would know a little more about what he's got.
