I just got delivery of my 1977 Birchaven after the accident. I was very impressed that so much survived, besides my wife and I. The drive train is completely intact, as well as all cooling systems to include oil cooler guard. If not for the one tree on the side I may have been driving it home.

I am in the process of buying a 4 post lift and getting ready to transfer much to a new 1977 Birchaven with a completely new brake system and Disc brakes.

I just need a rust and rot free unit without pull handles, air horns and all the ginger bread bolted through the body panels. For sure fiber glass holes are easier to repair than aluminum. I will be keeping my eyes open and scouting.

I am building a list of possible coaches.

Take care all,
Tom
