Looks like our 78 Royale. When we bought it 6 years ago. Maybe this one shown. Is in better shape? Except most of the original black paint was still on our frame. And the 403 had just 1882 miles on a rebuild. Parked next to a cornfield in Iowa, Oct of 1995. We bought it in Oct of 2015. A good solid 20 years. I took it completely apart. Refurbished everything. First long trip was 5, and half month's latter. Did all the work by myself. Never been towed yet. In the 36,000 miles traveled for us. To date. It's a HOBBY. RIGHT?
