Nice '73 on ebay with a ton of upgrades. Yes,
needs a bit here and there, but could be a great deal:

Sweet Coach!

This is what I was talking about as far a good buys on "USER" coaches. (Keep in mind I am going by the ad only.) This needs very little upgrading and I doubt it will get much more than a coach that needs "much TLC" to be used. (Sorry, about that to the owner... it is the market.) Interior looks very nice, replace the convection/microwave and it would only have one sore spot... the dash. A Mac dash would really make a difference...

The side pipes look nice bit I would be concerned about where they cross the fuel lines. I would check the rubber in that area before driving much. The Weld wheels look nice but they are still 16.5's.

I noticed that there isn't a reserve on this coach. Watch what it sells for. I think someone is going to get quite a buy.

Another thing... notice the method of mounting antennas to the roof without potential leak points.

On top of the low profile AC covers!

There may be a reserve. It looks like he put up the first bid himself. As soon as there is another bid, it may show "reserve not met" or what ever they do.

Well thanks for the compliments. I hemmed and hawed for a while, but I really have to sell it.I was in an accident in December'09 and spent most of last year recovering from surgeries to my mouth, elbow and knee so it go one week of use last year, even though I was out of work for 9 months. I'm going back for more surgery on my elbow and will be in a constant motion cast and I'll be out of work for 5 more months, so this year is out for traveling too.

It's always been a great coach for me and I'm sure it will be to some one else too. My friends say I'm crazy for selling at auction, but I guess I'll see.

If anyone would like to check it out, come on over. I'm charging up the battery (I'm pretty sure it's dead-dead), but it always started, so I'm not worried.

Thats no joke! I've got receipts from a Steve Adams, who had it built for over $30,000. Then from a Mr. Adair, who I bought it from for more. It hasn't been really run since August of 2009, and even before that it spent most of the summer of 2008 parked in York, Maine. It really must have been Mr. Adams dream, I know it was Mr. Adairs. I urge anyone interested to come up and take a look! I really will miss it, it always got plenty of attention wherever it went.

Coach sold last night! Fellow is flying out from out west and driving home. I'll give him all the information I can and also about this group. Thanks for all the help and enjoyment you've given over the years. I'll still check out the website and hopefully I'll own another one in the future.
