Just got the coach,77 Palm Beach, love the original look. PO built a permanent bed but did have the side-facing settees they had removed. We are going back to the original convertible seats/bed configuration. Pulled out the updates; now we are looking at the fiberglass over the generator on one side and a board over the water tank/lp tank on the other. Ready to put the settee foldout seats back in but we don't have any installation hardware, and can't find any pictures or documentation for how these seats get attached/installed. Any pictures/info about how to proceed/parts would sure be appreciated!

That same question came up this weekend from one of our new members.
I will get some pictures later this week. I do not know exactly how the fiberglass generator cover compares so my aluminum one. The seats mount with two pieces of angle aluminum, one on back just to lock it in place, and another in fromt that two bolts go through to hold seats.
What i seen on the coach this weekend is he was missing much of the cabnets too, so that is what made it confusing as to how the seats mount.
I am not home, i will try to get some pics when i am

Thomas(?),
Welcome to the group, family, cult, asylum...
I saw you first in the Sandbox but did not have the time to answer. I'm glad Jon has gotten back to you.
When you can, go to the control panel and build a sigfile. It should have your real name (so that when you do meet Jon, he will know who you are), a bit about the coach as a continuing reminded (there are differences with model and year that can matter) and a geographic reference so that another that may like to assist will know if he is in striking range.
This is important to the group because this is a supporting and helping family. You may not even be aware that by getting here, you just acquired a few hundred brand new old friends. They will help when they can and they are difficult to annoy and you cannot do that be asking questions - unless you ignore the answers. There are more than a few here with vast and amazing experience. The only other community I know of that is like this is the watermen of my world, and so much so that I have taken to welcoming new owners much as a new owner or vessel would be welcomed there. So,
May the Good Lord bless this coach and all those that set forth within her.
Welcome Thomas,
Matt

I hate to be a kill-joy, but you will be converting back to a permanent bed
before long! Go with it as it is...
My 3 cents worth (inflation) !
