Well I was working on installing the ceiling in the barn, so I can insulate it, and decided it would be a lot easier without the huge non functional AC on the roof of the GMC. So I removed it. After it was down I weighed the thing, 140lbs. Wow - I wish I had known it was that heavy before I carried it down the ladder on the back of the coach. Just kidding. That thing sure made a hell of a thump when it hit the floor.

Anyway, the interior cover is in good shape and is listed on the swap meet page:

Did the exterior cover go thump too, or was it already DOA? I need one.

Yep the upper/outer cover was trashed way before the thump.
