The super rare Newell on a Freightliner chassis. LOL

I am the head caretaker and floor sweeper on my dads coach. Also the one who drives it to Oklahoma for him for service.

LazyDays obviously has no idea about Newells. That is coach #392 and it obviously does NOT have a Freightliner chassis. It is 43'6" long. It has a 470 HP DD Series 60 that supposedly was replaced at 107,000 miles which would be highly unusual.

I dont mean to pile on but this made me chuckle. From one of their testimonials:
"The sales experts here know everything about every make and every model, and you don't have to go from dealership to dealership learning about them."

I saw this one in person (December 2017), and she's not pretty!

So..... does anyone have any insight as to the condition of this coach regarding the major stuff..... engine, transmission and structural components.

That is coach #392. It is 43'6" NOT a 37' as listed in the ad. I understand that the Series 60 Detroit Diesel was replaced at 104k miles but I don't know why. That is a very early replacement unless it had a catastrophic coolant failure. Based on an earlier photo, the previous owners pulled an open stacker trailer with a pickup on the bottom and a boat on the top.

Thanks. Seems like I remember seeing pictures of that coach on the old Newell Classic website. So I was hoping the former owners were still around. It's needs some updating but what coach doesn't after 20+ years, right?
Thanks again,
