Sounds like a very nice MH. Many people here would tell you to get it inspected before you purchase. With older MH it's helpful if not necessary to be very handy.

Good luck!

What model?

With an original sale price of $320K in 1991, that would likely be a Concept, I would think. Or maybe a specially outfitted Affinity? $320K sale price could mean MSRP of $400K+.

The Prevost Conversion MSRP was $445K per NADA.

The Concept at some time was CC's attempt at replacing the Prevost Conversion. Great coach but not overly successful in the market place.

A model name would help engender some feedback to your question.

Yes, a model name would be very helpful. With a 320 Cat I don't think it would have been a Concept as CC was still using the Detroit 6V-92 and 8V-92 motors in the '91 Concept. Whatever model it is I'm sure it's potentially a great coach, but thorough due diligence is an absolute must. Especially on the drive train as a complete in-frame on the engine will cost over $20k. These motors are good for hundreds of thousands of miles, but only if operated regularly and properly maintained. Ask me how I know!

The other comment made here regarding the need to enjoy working on older coaches is also sound advice. Fortunately for me, I love working on my '90 CC Concept. The build quality is outstanding, but there is hardly a single system on which I haven't had to do some kind of work.
