Hi,

I'm new to this site and my wife and I are considering buying a GMC motorhome that is for sale where we live. I was wondering if I could get some opinions as to if this is a fair price or not? I haven't seen the motorhome yet but I did talk to the owner and he said it would require new tires before it could be used since the tires are 10-15 years old. I was thinking of upgrading the rims right away to Alcoa or Eagle rims. So adding it all up (tax, license, tire, rims) I figure it would cost me about $5500-$6500 just to be able to drive it home.

Any thoughts?

Here are the basic details on this particular coach:
* 1976 model year
* 26'
* 455 Toronado engine
* approximately 98K miles

Here is his description:
I purchased it in Michigan about two years ago and drove it to Madison, Wisconsin. I had big plans to restore it for family trips but simply got overwhelmed with my young family and couldn't find the time to get started. It's been in covered storage since then. I have very little history with it so most of what I know is from simple observation and inspection. The seller claimed it was stored outside for 7-8 years but drove it semi-regularly on short trips. Virtually all items appear to be original. I made a few repairs to get it mobile but a fair amount of work still needs to be done to make it reliable.

Thanks for any help!
