Was there some comment that this is likely to be a scam?

The only reference to 'scam' was as follows:

My scam flag is going off.
Isn't that Bill Bennett's coach? The old Mark Finke, OASI motorhome?

And that's all I can add.

Hi All

I'm thinking a scammer would probably not have a 100% positive feedback rating and would not be publishing his phone number, but
I've been wrong before, I think ;<).

Not to get to far off topic, But does anyone know what kind of front bumper this coach has?

Seems it would be easy enough to check with Jim Bounds, since he is named in the ad as having a hand in the project.

It's got all Ocean Atlantic's fiberglass parts on it. Front and rear bumper
covers, sun visor, air dam, side skirts, fender flares, ...

Mark's coach was later stretched to 28' since the photos at:
www.bdub.net/OASI/ and sold to Paul (not Bill) Bennett.
(www.bdub.net/paulbennett/)
This looks a lot like his.

It's my understanding that their facility, including all molds, burned,
probably 10+years ago now, ending the operation forever.

The business ran its course, Mark got to the point doing all by himself got too much, also had a fire that burned his molds.  We have the visor mold, the rest are gone.  We all come and go, the motorhome stay...

In that same vein: Don't tell him I said so, but anyone wanting any of
Frank Jenkins' fiberglass parts should be putting orders in. Not that he's
got any plans to stop production or any such thing, it's just that he's
even older than I am (77 as of last Friday), and I sure couldn't keep up
his pace today -- with my GOOD health.
