Ran across a '76 in really sad condition.  It's on the back corner of the lot at the body shop which is painting my toad.  According to the shop guy, it belongs to the building owner he rents from.  Benn sitting 3 years he knew of, supposedly had a 'new engine' put in.  Several windows are open, and there's a missing roof vent.  Ceiling is ruined.  Interior I could see is pretty much a writeoff.  Bags are down, so I didn't look underneath, no idea of frame rust, etc.  Didn't look in the hatches, no idea if there's an Onan or propane tank or anything.  Rear dinette, fridge on the pax side, 2 original looking A/C on the roof.  Initial impression - good for parts, or a real expensive rehab if the driveline is good and the frame isn't rusty.  If anyone's interested, I'll chase the owner down and you could offer to haul it off for him.
 
Shotwell, or whomever, is this one in the Registry?

Johnny,
It would be beneficial if you included the state where you live in your signature. That way we would know approximately where this coach was located at. It would also in the future help members here on the GMCnet direct you for help, parts and information.

Could it be a 23' instead of a 26'?
