Give Tom Hampton of Grandview Motorhomes a call; he had a GMC he built originally for a handicapped lady for sale a few years back
he should be able to give you some good advice.

G'day,

That's the coach Tom had for sale when Helen and I visited Tom and Nina which was at least 5 years ago. It is a really nice coach as
Tom did a great job on it.

Bob,
No disrespect meant, I was merely laughing at the hidden answer to your question of market.
You asked if there was a market, I'd say if ones been for sale for 5 years without selling there is no market.
As with most things custom it's always safer to build for a client rather than build and Tru to sell later.

As stated in the subject line. Handicap. ( Could be. )GMC's built as handicapped are limited to an extremely small market. Almost zero. The main items with this build. are being safe/dependable. With bonus items of larger then normal bath, double the closet space. With a cloths hamper, and a linin closet that no GMC's have. Bob Dunahugh 78 Royale.
