number 08195L-21-HB. This is an early L.K. Newell-built coach from Miami, Oklahoma. It was left on my property about eight years ago when I bought the house. No title. I'm hoping to find a collector or restorer who wants to bring it back to life. It's a piece of Newell history. Located in . I can provide photos and more details. Make me a reasonable offer." I do not have a title . Was lleft on n property when i bought . Dont know if it runs allni have is the serial engine and vin numbers ..im new at this and im just looking for someone who wants to restore this and take it off my hands

Does anyone have Sub-Zero parts for the 700TC/I-3 refrigerator?  I need the part that the crisper drawer slides into.  It hangs on the refrigerator rear wall and has the glass on top.

allison ht741 wont go into drive only low gears
When I select Drive I get the transmission check light. I have gotten the vehicle up to temperature and went and checked the level on the dipstick, which seems to be fine and fluid seems to be new


if you can chime in and let me know what diagnostic protocols you would take I would greatly appreciate it. I’m way in the middle of nowhere in Texas so taking it to a shop that would have the right knowledge is going to be a bit difficult so I’m going to see what we can do while out here or having a general mechanic help out


it’s a 1994. now we will go into one two and three gear and I can drive the third gear up to about 60 miles an hour. I’m wondering if it’s not like a solenoid or something simple how far would I be able to limp the coach let’s see if I needed to get to a mechanic shop that specializes in the Allison  is it advisable to drive in lower gears for a longer time will it hurt the trans? thank you guys in advance

Fixing to replace both windshields in our coach. Question being, Do we let the windshields float in the molding and the coach or do we glue them in . Thats the question. Some people state due to the tweaking of the chassis it will break the windshields if glued in. Anyone have any knowledge on this question, experience with windshield cracking ? glue it in or not.. Thank you

Some of you may have read my other thread and know that I'm looking for a Newell coach.  As part of this process, I've registered and posted on two other forums.  Recently, one of those forums had a reply that gave me some pause and some concern.  I thought I'd ask y'all what you think and what your experiences have been considering most of you actually own or have owned Newell coaches.

Here is the quote:

Quote:Be very careful with Newell.  Buying an older one is false confidence.  I used to recommend them to those that didn't want to step into a bus chassis but wanted top quality rigs.  The dirty secret is that the support of older Newells from the factory has been severely diminished.  They have "lost" the old schematics and parts lists.  Neither the current owners nor factory want to admit this because it hurts resale across the board.  This type of thing happens when the new units are an order of magnitude more expense than the nice used examples.

I followed up asking if this was a rumor or if he had some basis for this and received the following:

Quote:This is from the mouth of a man who I know well and trust.  He is an expert in bus maintenance, repairs and upgrades and has worked on countless Prevost, Newell, MCI, and Blue Bird builds.  he personally owns multiple and is a regular savior to the members of several of those communities, so I will not reveal.

If I'm honest, one of the things that draws me to Newell is the support aspect.  Besides the obvious quality and longevity of these coaches, the fact they still build them, still work on them, and will help me, even if just over the phone, if I'm broke down in the classic middle of nowhere, that is very appealing to me.

I am not afraid to get my hands dirty and do a little work.  I have a full stable of tools, and can follow directions.  My "diagnosing" skills are not fantastic and I would never pretend even to be a mechanic.  But if someone tells me - do this, then do that, I can follow directions and have no fear of that.  So, the thought of having an "expert" available (besides you fine folk of course!!) has had me leaning seriously towards Newell.

So, based on what I read here, I'm thinking that this is just overblown hype, but truthfully, I have experienced many times with other things - "Sorry, but we can't support that item any longer, but we can sell you this great new one...."

I can afford to purchase and maintain one of these coaches, but buying a new one is not in my wheelhouse.   I don't need, nor want, a $3 million dollar coach to do what I want to do.

I am grateful for any advice you might have for me as I continue my search.

Someone vandalize my Coach about two weeks ago and I cannot find the glass anywhere, can anyone help point me in the right direction to finding this windshield please. My email is ([email protected]) thank you very much ??

I have a vintage newell caoch that was leftnon my property when i bought it in 2018 im wanting to see what i can do with it

As many of you know I’ve been fighting with my large SCS 2702 unit. Well I’m rebuilding it!!

I removed it, undercoating and rust proofing the compartment bay, put a stainless sheet on the floor of the bay.

Put the unit itself on saw horses.  It just got a new board at newell but the outside fan motor crapped out.  I’m replacing both fan motors, and all of the capacitors.  

I’ll add some pictures with where I’m at now and as progress goes.
