Here, near Detroit, there is a coach available.
This is a local coach that I have been watching for a couple years.
It was purchased a couple of years ago with a plan to take it on a road trip to property already owned in California.
Specifics:
1976 Canyon Lands 26. ODO shows 03803.
Does not run today, but did when parked with the help of an external fuel supply.
The radiator is out and so are the drive axles. The radiator needed repair (not yet done) and I don't know why the axles are out. Owner said all the important parts are there and he is a capable mechanic.
The owner and his brother decided to do the water pump/fuel pump/timing chain bit while the radiator was out.
Then the brother died. He never made it back to California.
The forward parts of the interior are removed.
The galley and refrigerator are still installed.
The rear bed has been converted to a solid bed.
There is no generator.
Current owner does not have the time or resources to get it road worthy.
Surviving brother seems to have very limited internet capability so contact me if you want the few pictures I have, owner's name and landline contact.
