Thanks for the update. Last I had seen that one was back in 2011 when Newell had it for sale.
I understand that one was wrecked when the toad came loose and hit a bridge causing the coach to go into the center median.

When we were at Newell in late March that coach was there. The insurance company has totaled that coach. After the wreck the coach sat at a wrecker yard for month and then brought to Newell. It took several hours for the tow driver to get it set up before he could tow it away.

The toad was a large H1 hummer that broke loose and started swinging side to side which made the driver loose control as they were crossing a bridge, apparently.
The coach has rear frame damage. To fix that you need to take it to a truck shop that can pull the frame. Newell won't touch it. Once that is done, the interior has to be pulled and the whole rear rebuilt. Newell estimated over 200k to repair it if you can get the parts.....and they will not sell parts for a Salvage coach...policy. Lots of undercarriage damage it seems as it went into a ditch.
If you did not have grey hair before....you would have it after this one would be road worthy (if ever) again....
Good parts coach and parted out for the right shop could bring some real money....if it can be bought right.
The auction date is not set. They are taking pre-bids only.

Driver's seat upholstery may need replacing also.
