Local Newell been sitting.... Should I buy it?
#9

Yikes!!!  Went and looked inside the coach on my lunch hour.  Took some pictures, but it looks worse in person.  Most of the basement is filthy and disgusting with soaking wet grime.  A couple basement doors were not latched and pretty much all seals (windows, doors, compartments) were toast.  Engine bay is filthy.  One side window was left cracked open, the driver's windshield is cracked.  The awning frames are corroded.  The floor felt soft just aft of the stairwell and the stairwell itself was disgusting.  The main leather couch had grease stains on it.  There were mouse droppings in various locations..... etc etc.  On top of all that, I found a post on another coach site where someone posted about this same coach at the same location 4 years ago (at which time he said it had been sitting for 5-6 years).  He said the owner would not go below 50k at that time.  From the previous post, it was listed as a '86 with about 200k miles but the engine and trans were replaced about 25k back (which was probably 20 years ago) I do not even want to make an offer at this point as this would be a huge long term project for me. Even if it runs as the owner told me it did on the phone, I place it's value at not much over the price of it's weight in scrap steel.  I can't believe someone would let such a high quality item go to heck like this.... disgusting!
