USA '75 Avion - Double Trouble TZE365V100426
AUS '75 Avion - The Blue Streak TZE365V100428
Judging by the amount of dissasembly, I'd say it falls under the "if you have to ask..." category. 
76 Birchaven - "Wicked Mistress" - New engine, trans, alum radiator, brakes, Sully airbags, fuel lines, seats, adult beverage center... those Coachmen guys were really thinking about us second hand owners by including that beverage center...

Armand, maybe after the steps you did on your coach and the talk you did
about the work you would comment.
I do not say this as any negative comment so please do not read that into
it, if the desire is to go as much "factory" as possible they would not do
the process of color sand and buff out the factory "orangepeal" nibbles on
the surface. On the tight in shot of the logo you can see it was not
sanded That would be correct and period for the production and it does
look single stage material.
Labor of steps in the process--- disassembly, sanding, etching, sealing,
base, clear, wet sand & buff and assembly with new stuff for the labor and
all the different materials needed to do each step adds up to the final
cost and quality.
Sure does bring the coach into the good looking ranks.
One comment is so true, even on the early coaches I feel GM did a great job
at striping, we recently painted a 23' factory colors and stripes and they
do look good.
