Vintage CC

My friend has owned no fewer than 12 motorhomes, including several DPs. She spotted a 1990 Country Coach for sale, and I asked if I could tag along to see it, just for fun.

My biggest concern is some surface distortion of the fiberglass running vertically behind the driver's window, some poorly-applied touchup in the general area. A patch was applied to the fiberglass, evidenced by a hairline crack where a repairman had made a seam, for two or three inches, oriented vertically.

I made a Picasa album of the pictures I took HERE.

As always, your input is valued.

Interesting coach. I would want to know more about the panels shown in the picture with the battery tray pulled out. It looks like a bunch of delamination there, could be just the picture. The interior is very interesting.

It would take a few bux to get it to where I would like it but anything is possible with money.

Why would a woman want a coach that is going to take some work to get back into shape?

Believe it or not, coaches like this are selling for about $25k now. It may take another $10k to completely go through it and take care of the biggest concerns and make it a trust worthy coach again. It appears to have been neglected. Good luck and keep us posted.

That is a Country Coach Concept I think. Great body lines and top of the CC line other than bus conversions at the time. Looks to be in great condition from a distance.

The water at the overhead cabinets may be from an antenna lead leak. I had one there and found it easy to clean up the ceiling material and woodwork after repair of the sealant.

I would think the coach would have a higher market price just because it was a limited edition Concept, if I have identified it correctly. I have read of people who are searching for that kind of rig.

The repairs and replacements look to be easy to accomplish.
