Hello All.
I've recently completed restoring/rebuilding an 1979 Avion Trailer,
before that I restored a C3 Corvette. I'd like my next project to be a GMC
Motorhome it should combine the hardest parts of both of those projects :)
After looking at all the floor plans I decided that the 1978 Royal with
Rear Twins would be the best option for my family. My 5 yo should fit at
the dinette and my wife (6'0'') and I (6'2'') should fit in the rear
twins? After looking for the last 8 months or so I found one in Louisiana
that looks good, at least the pics online do. The only problem is I am in
Green Bay, WI. Could anyone recommend someone near Oberlin, LA to do the
inspection? Or is anyone nearby willing to do the inspection? I would be
willing to compensate you for you time. Thanks.

Those twins might be a little tight for you. The rear bath Royale has twins also but the curb side bed will accommodate some one a little taller in that your feet could hang over the bed by not being boxed in. Just a thought you might consider.

So that is one less thing to worry about. I'm interested to see if anyone could help me with the inspection. Thanks!
Might be a slow time to get a reply. The GMCMI convention starts Friday in Tallahassee. You might get someone to take a look on their way home west after the convention. There will be some VERY knowledgeable people at the convention from out west.
