I believe this is coach #599 based on the exterior paint scheme and the check digit of the partial VIN. For sale with a 2006 Hummer H2.

I'm just curious based upon the recent discussion of HWH slides, are the Valid slides any less prone to operational and seals problems?

Hi to all
I'm new to the MH idea
I've been looking for one for a month or two. I actually drove down to Indy to look at this unit- 4 hour drive and after looking the wife was not happy. I'd think you could call this unit a rough blank canvas. The overall condition seems to be solid. I think it has had some mice residents "which freaks out my wife". I also suspect some water damage to the interior wall's - crumbling wood behind the chairs where the wall is cracked . The cabinet's seem to have had some water issues and seem very weak to ready to fall apart. the engine appears to have been replaced by an International Diesel V8 non turbo - blue international on cast valve covers. the ties are brand new - huge - the body is a little rough shows some sign of corrosion. Looking underneath it has some rusted sheets that appear to be loose. The small steel rails going from side to side look ok. All the doors open and seem ok. Looks like some welding was done in the engine compartment. I'm not sure it's related to the engine swap, looks structure related - 4 x 4 inch steel tube close to the side body. Batteries are new - however they had to jump it to start and none of the electrical items shows active on the dash. No gauges are showing pressure - temp indicators etc.. I think the main disconnect for the inverter was turned off. I'm not sure if this was the issue. It has a gas generator. looks ok. One of the techs from camper world picked up the coach and said it drove fine on the highway, about 60mph top speed. The engine seems to run well. the air brakes showed no pressure on the gauge . and when I put the transmission in gear it didn't move. I also noticed the top of the tire was very close to the inner fender. Could be related to no air in the rear bags. Steering felt fine. The wheel is huge - not unexpected.
My wife is not to keen on the major rehab on the interior. she worried about getting the wall's recovered at repair the water damage.
It appears the side windows may be leaking. Can they be replaced?
Any recommendations would be appreciated. I won't mind buying a project like this if it's feasible to get back in good shape without spending huge money. I like the old classic coaches, Newell Bluebird etc.
Thanks in advance from a guy that's on the fence.

Had driving rain on the last night of our labor day weekend and got lots of water in coach while we were sleeping.
After drying everything out discovered the front slide seal wasn't in the right place…its come loose from where it was glued to the wall or whatever its glued to.
After bringing it in, it got punched by the pin and has a good leak now.
I had to shut air off to the slide seal because it just hisses constantly.  
Any suggestions to first fix the leak in the inner tube-like seal and second to reposition it / glue it back in place?
Does the entire thing need to be replaced? Anybody had slide seals replaced outside of Miami, OK and whats your luck with them?
Im officially depressed over this…the plywood ceiling in the slide room is warped and irregular now so it wrinkles the leather roof slightly.
I'm afraid of the repair costs but don't have much choice.

my wife and I are new 2 this site . We have owned multiple motor homes . We then converted a gm pd 4106 bus... She is a beauty but as yrs go on I have the itch for something else (the bus that is)lol... Well I almost bought a Newell a while back but it wasn't quite right. I think the right one has appeared . We fly out 2 Texas and will drive back on 9/16 . It is coach 99 I believe, in kerrville Texas . Has anyone heard anything bad about that coach? There is another 86 an hr or so away that looks good also. I really wanna drive one of em home! I really hope the one in kerrville works out ! Thanx

We drove from Huntsville to Tuscaloosa this morning to see the Crimson Tide play Western Kentucky University.  The coach did great and our new living room slide awning paid for itself when it came time to pack up and go this morning.  The awning covers the Windows so when I rolled them up it gave me about 4" under the part of the awning covering the slide.  There were NO leaves under the awning (we are parked under several huge trees that drop leaves and 'bombs' on us constantly.  I cleaned off the leaves covering the top of the awning with our adjustable wash brush but I figured out that I could have simply rolled up the whole awning and the leaves would have just fallen off as the awning rolled up.  It was my first time so I was more cautious.  I did notice that the gaskets on the sides of the slide out were sticky (maybe with tree sap) but the top pulled away nicely (no tree sap!).  I basically dusted off the slide and pulled it in... Perfect!  The rear bedroom slide does not have an awning (but it will soon!) and it was the usual 45 minute nightmare of cleaning leaves, dirt, grime, sap, etc.  The bedroom has never been too difficult to clean but today's exercise convinced me of the need for the bedroom awning...  
Oh yeah, Crimson Tide won (go figure) and it was HOT in the stadium but the band was great and it was a lot of fun.  I can't wait to go again!

Need some help/thoughts/etc.  
We spent the week at the lake...came back to Butler yesterday, pulled into the garage, extended the two back slides and all was working well.  The indicator lights on the panel went out as they should and we turned the key to OFF. I extended the two front slides.  Just as the last front slide was fully extended the slide panel lights went out as if there was a power outage.  They will not come back on when the keys on the control units are turned.  Both rear and front slides are "dead in the water".  When you turn the key to ON you can hear the bladders deflating and inflating, but the slide will not move.

There doesn't seem to be any other electrical problem that I can find.  All other systems seem to be working, I can find no fuse in the front panel under the dash that is not OK.

Does anyone have any ideas?

On my way to a campsite in Matagorda Bay and noticed a cloud of white smoke when taking off from a stop.
Pulled over and found coolant coming from between head and cylinder of air compressor. No water in oil, air pressure was good and no alarms, and vspmc said water temp was about 205. 
Of course, no techs or service available at steward stevenson, if anyone has had this problem, can I get away with just a new gasket, or am I better off trying to find a new compressor?
Thanks, Jim 409 771 6427

We'll be at Marathon until October 1, but at a condo.
If anyone is around or passing through give us a holler.
