I talked Richard Rienders into buying a really nice 78 Royale 2 years ago. Then 3 months ago he bought a 76 Palm Beach. So now he has 2 GMC's. A Few months ago I talked John, and Teresa Miller into buying Glenn, and BJ's nice 76 Eleganza. So then Sunday night we found a 78 Royale in Northern Arkansa. About 50 miles South of Branson Missouri. Just sounded too good to be true. So called Monday, then yesterday morning they went there to check it out. What they found was an absolutely outstanding well maintained GMC. With paper work on all the work that was done on it. Remanufactured 455, trans rebuild, all wheel bearings done, all brake work with new brake lines, And the list just went on from there. The price was very reasonable. So now they have two GMC's. These friends were already in my club. Bob Dunahugh's made me spend alot of money club. I've had two 78 Royales at once, two years ago. Now I know of another 78 Royale 3 miles North of me that's for sale. So does this mean that I'm doomed to have another 78 Royale? Coachman must have made alot of Royales in 78. Treat your friends better than I have mine.Bob Dunahugh.

Bob,
We all need to do or share of trying to get people to acquire these coaches
and keep them alive.
I really appreciate all that your doing for all of us as things keep the
value of them up.

You may want to get more if Linda's honey-do list knocked out before putting another project in the driveway!

Apparently you can't see the pics unless you are a Facebook "member."

Don't bother tilting at that windmill. Unlike our photo site that is freely visible to everyone, with or without membership, you have to join just to view theirs. Their attitude is either join FaceBook or forget it. I choose to forget it.
