I was told about it and went to see it on Craigslist some time ago.
It could be restored and I hate to see it used for only parts.
I'm willing to give a fair price for it.
I believe the owner lives in Canada and New Mexico depending on the time of year. However, I'm not 100% sure.
If you have personally seen it please let me know.

VIN: TZE166V102038
Please help me out if you know anything.
Thank You, Tony

Sorry Harry No. I have no clue where the owner lives other than Canada and New Mexico.
This GMC was at a lot for 2 years, on consignment, and the owner started off asking 8K. My guess it that the lot is tired of trying to sell it for them because the owner is not being reasonable on the price. Otherwise it would have been sold long ago. I called yesterday and they said the guy would not take my offer - because he refused one before mine. They want it off their lot and told the owner to come get it. I no longer have a person to deal with on the coach. (MTCW - It sounds like the owner was testing the market, or clearly thought it was worth more, and maybe tired to get some storage while biding some time.)
As some already know I have to make a trip out west to haul an rare Wayne 100 boat back home for our collection.
I would rather buy something with my funds than rent a truck for the same price. Either way I will have to pay for my own gas, hotel and food. So why not have something for my money when I get back home.
I had my hopes up on this GMC. It is not pretty or in great shape. But I felt it get me home and be a good start to a nice coach for us. (Plus I had Marie's "stamp of approval" on this one.)

If I have enough time and money.
#1 I'm going to Tuolumne, CA first.
#2 From there I hope to make to Whidbey Island for July 17 to July 21
#3 Then on to 2014 Corsa Convention Tacoma, WA July 21 to July 25 2014.
Then back home to Ontario Canada.
However, If I do not have the extra time and money I would at least like to do #1 and #3 before heading back home.

Since you have the serial number, contact John and ask for the owner's info.

Dennis,
I did a while ago. Not able to contact anyone from the information.
That is why I posted here - in hopes that someone knows the coach and the owner(s).
Thank you.
