Since you are looking specifically for an original Palm Beach, that one looks to be an unmolested unit that fits your wish list perfectly. The $23,000 asking price is very reasonable for the condition indicated by the photos so I would not be focused on price at this point. The Honda generator alone is worth a few thousand dollars premium over one with an Onan. It is always good to have an experienced set of eyes look at the coach for things like rust on the frame, brake lines and such so you may want to consider asking one of our posters who frequently picks up coaches and drives them back to the west coast to do that for you. If that is of interest, let me know and I will PM you his contact info so you can see if he is interested. Far better than trying to intuit anomalies on the road yourself. Once you get it home do the brakes, bearings and tires for safety, and then things as they present themselves. Talking to the owner via phone may answer a lot of your questions, but the price certainly seems well in line to me if the pics really do represent the condition. Enjoy!

Thanks for all the help Ken, Larry, and Rob. I really appreciate it...
I realize that it is a bit difficult from pictures alone. If I were able to verify the "newness" of these things does $20,000 +/- seem fair?
Also, if I were unable to find someone in the Chicago area who knows what to look for on the frame what would I be looking for?
