I can't tell of those are hubcaps or Alcoa rims. Maybe someone can rescue this one, or at least get the VIN for JShot when it gets dismantled.

I wish i would have seen this sooner... I drove through both Scappoose and St Helens yesterday with my camera and a little spare time. Confused

From the features in the pictures (decal style. door latch, cabinets over the kitchen, front seats and pedestals) I would guess it would be a 1973.

While I am not totally positive, zooming the picture on the wheels, it looks like it has the same plastic hubcaps I have for my 1973. (IE: Pretty sure not Alcoas.)

Just from the pictures: Even if this coach hadn't flooded and "dried" out... it isn't worth rescue but it looks to have a few parts. (like a bunch of cockpit window latches... if it is a 73.) I personally find it sad to call any non-crash or fire damaged damaged coach not worth rescue... but you have to be realistic.

I might be able to find the time to go back down the river and take some pictures... Anyone actually interested in doing anything to this coach?
