Arch's coach got flooded but not the matching toad. He says 10 grand will buy both. Says cosmetic damage inside and some of the lower cabinets need replaced.
Here is a picture of the two:

While I was looking at the pictures of Arch's coach it looked like he had a through the bumper hitch. Do you know how he was able to do that with the Jinkins storage boxes mounted between the bumper and the coach.

Not Dan, but new owner of Arch's coach.

Your correct the coach has a thru bumper receiver. Apparently the "Blue OX" tow bar is/was a semi-permanant addition so there was simply a hole cut in the box for the hitch to pass through. Gaps around the bar were filled with Great Stuff expanding foam.

I may try to add a larger square tube for the hitch to pass through. But don't really need to as don't expect to travel much with the nicely match towd.
