Help finding info on 1977 RV

A few days ago I bought a 1977 RV. The cabin says that it is a Ford Econoline. But my pink slip says that it is a Amate. Where can I get information regarding this RV. I am looking for the owners manual.

If you look on Google for "1977 Ford Econoline Amate" you will find some info including Youtube videos.

Hope this helps.

And, welcome to the forum.

It's an Amate motorhome on a Ford Econoline chassis.

Ford Econoline manual from 77 will be for the chassis and highly doubtful you will get the owners manual stuff for the motorhome part of it.

Rather than trying to get the coach manual, I would suggest you look at getting the manuals for the major components. Engine, transmission, refrigerator, water heater, AC and thermostat, leveling jacks, etc. These usually are more detailed and will give you info on operation and troubleshooting.
