I watched it. A pretty special coach, for sure. However, I saw a price/cost of $159,000 on the evaluation. Doesn't that sort of fit the description of gilding a lily or putting lipstick on a pig?

That was the appraisal valuation Mac. Did not hear a mention of an asking
price.

For that kind of dough, looks like they'd have put some Ken Henderson wipers on it. Still no place for a grown man to sleep.

Last screen of the video was $99,000 for the asking price

I flew through the video, but you probably be at that price on paying someone else to restore a coach to that level. It did look nicely done and clean. If I had to guess, It looks like a coop job??

The price listed on the Applied GMC Appraisal is for Insurance purposes. It is a loss issue and is estimated cost of what it would cost to replace the coach like for like. It has nothing to do with what the coach would sell for on the open market. If you look at the first appraisal page you can see he is asking $99000 for the coach. Is that a good price? Not for me to say! The owner has spent alot of money to get the coach in this condition. I can say from coach that I have built that I really never got out what I put into the coach.

As stated in my signature block I own a Buskirk Stretch and a Avion model coaches. Our Stretch (Chassis #5 or 7 built) replacement cost is well north of 200K, remember that is what it would take to replace the coach, not for what it would sell for.
