Unfortunately I'm selling my '81 classic. I've come to the realization that I cannot take care of 2 Newells at the same time.
Length: 36'
Engine: Cummins VT903
Trans: MT 643 5 speed Allison
224 gallon main diesel tank and 56 gallon aux. tank
116 gallon water tank and 119 holding tank
49 gallon propane tank
Changes/modifications that I have made:
2014: Replaced all interior mirrors and replaced all light bulbs with LED
7/2014: Added fire suppression systems for main engine and generator
9/2014: Replaced shifter cable (Stewart and Stevenson)
2014: Installed camera system (driver and passenger side view and backup cameras)
11/2014: Replaced curtains with blinds (motorized in bedroom)
12/2014: Painted mid section of coach (Iron Horse RV) (Sherwin-Williams paint with several clear coats)
Replaced water heater (Suburban 6gal propane/electric)
Replaced broken windows, tinted all windows
11/2015: Replaced driver and passenger chairs (Flexsteel Deluxe Pillowtop with motorized footrest on passenger chair)
4/2016: Replaced all air bags and shocks (Koni adjustable)
4/2016: Replaced genset (Engine Power Source 12KW – Kubota 4 cylinder 1.5 liter diesel), with a dedicated starting battery – does not use house batteries. Genset has about 500 hrs on it. The original hr meter stopped working at about 350 hrs and I replaced it.
Replaced slack adjusters, brake chambers and hoses (Krause Bus Sales)
5/2016: New tires all around
9/2016: Replaced majority of dash wiring with soldered connectors and added fuse to protect dash circuit.
10/2016: Replaced oven (Dometic CU-434 stainless steel 3 burner cooktop/oven)
10/2016: Replaced electric heaters (Cadet) and added Olympian Wave 8 catalytic heater to living area.
11/2016: Replaced middle propane furnace (Suburban NT16)
11/2016: Replaced bath and shower fans
12/2016: Replaced headlights with halogens
2/2017: Checked/adjusted valves (Cummins)
10/2017: Replaced refrigerator with 12V/120V Novacool RFU9000: 9.5 cu ft only uses 5.2amps when sealed Danforth compressor is running. Added dedicated circuit directly from house batteries.
1/2018: Replaced fan and alternator belts (Cummins)
2/2018: Replaced house batteries with Lifeline AGMs
3/2018: Replaced kitchen sink and faucet
3/2018: Installed Magnum Inverter/Converter and replaced all house battery cables (Inverter not hooked up to 120V yet, used only as a converter at this time)
6/2018: Replaced windshields
7/2018: Replaced toilet with Dometic 320
8/2018: Replaced starter and solenoid
7/2019: Replaced front AC unit with Coleman Mach 15
4/2020: Replaced dash water temp gauge
6/2020: Replaced starting batteries
9/2020: Refurbished pass through bay
This has been a labor of love. The wet bay still needs a little more love. But this coach is ready to be lived and traveled in!
She's been to the Indy 500 a couple times and we've taken her on many TX state park adventures. We drive her on a regular basis and run the generator at least once per month and usually weekly.
We live around Floresville, TX.
Price - $28,000
