Looks interesting.
Interior has been changed, has awnings and fender flares.

I see tape around the door, but no other damage. Wondering about the "frame damage reported."

Might be good for parts or to be put onto another coaches frame.

Direct link did not work... search with lot number.

Mike,
I joined copart and one time tried to bid (buy) a RHD Jaguar e type and had
to use a broker and they did not respond, can you or someone educate me in
the use of this site?

Can you tell us how Copart works??? I've never heard of it and there may be others who haven't as well. Have you used it before??? ...


1. I have never bought anything from Copart.

2. I believe Copart is set up more for the "wholesale" market than to individual customers. Kind of a clearing house for "insurance paid off" vehicles.

3. I understand some states limit who can buy "totaled" vehicles. In those states you might need a broker or a licensed auto re-builder to actually purchase the vehicle.

4. Someone on the net has bought vehicles from Copart. I do not remember who or in what state. If I find the time, I'll search...

I was looking at an insurance totaled GMC in Ill. Info stated that purchase in IL could only be done by a broker or licensed re-builder or some similar restrictions. However out of state (IL) purchasers had no such requirements.

Without a first hand look It appears that the damage is probably in
the body ribs and they are repairable and the door frame may be
bent. This is a repairable coach not a parts coach and the frame
rail can easily be replaced, If it wasn't on the left coast I would
bid on it.
