Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved
body,
but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting
"...Thank you Jesus ...what a ride!"

Bob, The later coaches built in '78 had this system. The sensors are still available at the auto recycle yards. They and the compressors were still being used on GM cars at least through the mid 1990's. Doesn't have as many valves and air lines as the Power Level systems. Here's a link on the sensors http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/showgallery.php?cat=4607

Thanks John! I'd seen a diagram of the EL2 that showed an Air Tank and the writeup said the Kingsly didn't have one.

Nice looking coach Bob.
more pictutes and info available on the ebay classifieds referenced in the link you provided. As well as another couple coaches in central AZ. There are at least another two available in the same area.

Nice mods on this one. Hope they are better done than the additional guage mountings.

If all of the "new" stuff is no older than five or six years and coach is
drivable (as in 1,500 or so without a foreseeable hitch) then I'd say the
price is right.

Since the upholstery isn't original it indicates someone had sense enough to
replace the original.

If the "new" TV isn't HD then it isn't "new". It's junk.

The placement of the tach and vac gauges is a matter of taste. At least it
has them.

Get off the fence and go for it. You missed getting mine for more.

Byron, the rear bath plus the 455 was one undesirable too much. . .but I'm
glad someone wanted it as it was a good GMC treated with tender loving care!

Adiós. . .

Bob, ElectroLevel II does not have a tank. ElectroLevel does have a tank as it has one compressor, air leveling valves, and about 7 solenoids.
