Clark... If you just happen to look..cause your bored or the like.. I would have interest to know it it has any wood rot below the windows under the laminate.. Any wood rot in the bay floors.. Does it still have the split-rim wheels.. Don't know much about the 6V92 so you could help on that if you like.. Don't think it will sell on the first go-round as the price seems to be way under the reserve.. and about the top "I Think" cause we know the buying is just the start of the spending... Coming from FL I worry about rot.. I'll never ever do that again.... Took me 11 sheets of plywood last time.... Thanks Clark!

Rot will depend somewhat on where it has been the last upteen years.....if it has been in SoCal all this time, the odds are lower, but not zero. I may go look at it, and I will let you know. On the 6V92, that is what I have, but mine is the "silver" edition. Will depend on what edition it is.....the early 6V92's tended to leak oil, but that problem was all but eliminated with the silver edition. I am about 99.9% sure these are not split rims wheels....they look like ALCOA's. I would think the reserve is at, or under $20,000, but I'll see what I can find out.

Ok Thanks.. they said they drove it in from FL but maybe not... My 36' had alcoa but were split-rims..

I had a 6v92 in my 83 Bluebird. The engine had over 300,000 on it when I sold it. Had 330 hp. It was a strong engine.

Looked at the coach today......it was purchased at auction in Florida and driven to California according to Shawn. The tires have date code of 2001, but they made it to California. It does not have the Silver edition engine, but it looks clean. It does not have split rims. Coach looks clean, but needs work. No dry rot apparent around windows. Looks like Modern Maid toaster shorted out.....kitchen will need new wiring at outlet where toaster was plugged in. Has newer fridge. Has ice maker. Carpet in salon area looks new. Has one house battery....8D...which is new. Start batteries look older. Drivers window is new. Mileage round 180,000. Reserve is $19,000 as I suspected. Auction just over $12,000 right now. According to Shawn, both A/C's are warranted to work. Nice project if you are looking for one.
