I just happened to stumble on this. It sounds like a bargain for someone with a smaller budget or start from scratch restoration. I'm tempted.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/rvs/4719337106.html


Besides the other obvious errors in the listing: It doesn't look to be a 1974.

Looks to me to have the 1975 and up furnishings.
It also looks to be a Glenbrook, first put out for MY 1975.

I wonder what the title says...

Sorry, pushed the wrong button-- yes, it's not unlike other coaches, there
are no added value issues however. That one looks untouched-- good in some
ways but with everything pretty much original it means pretty much
everything will have to be e over.
That's how it is when you invest in a core. There is a 1973 coach,
production #41--- now that IS "very rare", has 2 (countm) ladders and a
late model Norcold frig and it's $3000. I too would want to see the title,
looks like a 75 to me too.

Remember, you will always put more money in a core but you can spread it
out...

Yes, the interior (from what one can see in the pictures) looks like a '75, but the air filter in on center and the distributor is Not HEI.....

Michael, there's a certain amount of good-natured teasing that takes place here on this list.

Our "favorite oriental" (as he refers to himself) is one who partakes in this occasional teasing and he is hardly likely to have taken any offense!

That is a correct observation Steve a lot of 75 coaches would have motors built in 74 and that would mean points distributors .
