We have been dancing around this for years, for the last decade we didn't have the time or money to address it. But last summer I put new tires, brakes and fuel lines on only to find out that the frame needs replacement. So time to end it. Here is a terrible you tube video with pics and info:

I doubt anyone want this given the frame, but it does run and stop quite well. Did a 15 mile hilly drive to Ken Frey yesterday in 80 degree heat.
I want to part it in a way that keeps it mobile as long as possible, so here is what is available right away.
Alcoas with year old cooper tires, lugs $2000 but I want your old wheels and tires so I can move the coach in the driveway.
Fuel tanks, just dropped and clean, painted white with new vent, selector $400
Ragusa bits, wind wings, interior bits, roof pod open to offers.
If you do want the whole thing, $5000 takes it home. I can part it out for more.
Located in Chalfont, PA, zip 18914
Emails or phone calls best.

Sent you an email for the Ragusa parts.
Wish I had known 2 weeks ago, I was in Souderton for business.
I could have brought my wheels and tires and bought yours.

Ken Frey looked at it this week. So it needs replacing.
That said, mechanically it should have no problem making the drive. Mechanically it runs great, and the brakes are new. Engine has 180# compression, tires are new. But no guarantees.
As soon as I drain the tanks down I will be pulling them. They were dropped last summer and looked great. Replaced vapor separator and selector valve. Hoses and clamps all new.
One sender works, other is flaky. Would like 400 for the whole shebang, but no shipping on this.

Tanks are out and clean. Also pulled the metal fill line, it is in great shape with the frame brackets. Feed line rubber hoses are new.
I also still have a half roll of new fuel line, the feeds and vent lines for both tanks are steel so no chance of pinching a rubber line.
Senders have new lock rings and one sender works great, other flaky.
Willing to deliver free within 200 miles of zip 18914. Beyond that we could work something out.
If you need tanks and the tires, a package deal is possible.
