qcj,
My 1999 Newell is coach # 512 so it rolled off of the line in early 1999.
I was told that if a coach is finished on the 2nd day of January of a certain year; that is the model year for that coach. So a coach that was started on in mid 1998 and is completed on or after January 2, 1999 it is a 1999.
Hope this helps.
Also, Newell will not send you copies of the invoices on a particular coach; however, you can drive to the factory and they will let you look at the invoices. They may also discuss what was done to a coach but this is time consuming and they are pretty busy folks most of the time.
The best thing to do is to drive there and thumb thru the invoices. You can learn a lot by taking a trip to the factory if you haven't been there already.
Good luck
