I've been contacted by a group of folks we've had some contact with in the
past (GMCMI Branson & GMCDL Nockalua Falls) who are trying to promote the
GMC via national TV. They're creating an introductory video for
presentation to networks to sell the concept. Since they don't have a
coach of suitable quality ready yet, they'd like to do some video taping at
Montgomery, using a professional crew.

So they don't come to Montgomery on pure speculation that they'll find an
exceptionally nice coach with a similarly nice owner who'll let them do
interior and exterior filming, they contacted me for suggestions.

Unfortunately, I'm not very good at remembering nice coaches and who they
belong to. SO, here's the $64,000 question: Who, that will be at
Montgomery, has a particularly nice coach and will be willing to commit to
this project? Hopefully it will be someone here, but I'll contact non-
netters if someone wants to propose someone else.

Time is of the essence since I've delayed this for about a week already,
talking to local folks.

What about you???

By the way, I notice you didn't ask me that question today! I could be a "work in progress" but I'm nice. Smile

It sounds like Ken just needs someone to agree up front. So, Ken, you volunteer, up front. Should you rather not do it, we can find any one of a number of new looking coaches whose owner would agree. I have no doubt about it.
Problem solved. Call them back Ken.

Their idea is that they'll show the coach they pulled out of the weeds in
AL a few months ago and are refurbishing to start the video. Since they're
still a long way from finished, they want one they can pretend it's the
same one, finished, and being delivered to a customer. So it needs to be
pristine and pretty. Mine may still retain a little of its former "pretty"
(from 20'), but it's certainly no longer pristine. And I, personally, am
not fond of HER interior color choices.

Since there will be considerable expense involved with flying their crew in
from GA, they'd like more confidence than I can convince them is justified
that someone will volunteer to cooperate.

This commitment is NOT for their final show, once sold, but for the
"tempter" (they have a name for it that I can't recall) video.

Fred, would you be a candidate?
