I ran down to Meansville and had a look at this coach, Zhookoff claimed a Chicago trip and wussed out Smile He didn't miss anything.
Owner is Mike, a nice guy who wants $2500 for what he has. It could maybe parted for that amount. Someone started redoing it, and then threw in the towel about 8 years ago.

TZE063V100046, which makes it a very early production coach.
Inside is completely gutted.
Lower body panel drivers side around rear wheels is missing.
Both T skirts missing.
One aftermarket captain's chair for the driver.
Rear wheel wells are boxes made of aluminum checkerplate and angle riveted together.
Exhaust fan centered in the roof.
No pod or ladder.
Two new (6 years ago) hi efficiency airconditioners replacing the originals. One fully installed, the other installed on the roof but the inside fitting not yet installed - Mike says he has it.
HEI distributor fitted, aircleaner housing is hacksawed to clear it.
Alcoas all around.
Unworn Michelins all around, unfortunately coded 5106.
Engine hatch removed
Oil is dirty, but no water in it or condensate on dipstick.
Trans fluid doesn't smell burnt but isn't new.
Newer air bags, either NOS or replacement.
No pneumatics, vavle panel is missing, bags have Schraders fitted
Original compressor fitted.
Odometer shows 34292. This is either the second or third lap based on age and condition.
Passenger side window and toll window and frames missing
No genset, no propane tank.
No freshwater tank.
Apparently there is a blackwater tank, there's a commode fitting through the floor which is stabilized by something under there.
Outboard motor fuel tank )no hose attached) inside. Indicates lines are original.
Master cylinder is rusted up.
Original brake hoses on bogies and calipers.
etc.

I didn't ask where the removed parts are - don't know if he has them or they're gone (Buzz box, plumbing fixtures, cabinets, etc.)

I have pictures, I'll post tonight or tomorrow.

I opined that his best return would be to sell parts off it. He says someone is coming to look next week who needs it for parts. I didn't make an offer.
