I'm going to be putting my M/H up for sale, though I'd post it here first while I get everything straightened out.
1988 34' Coachman Classic, John Deer chassis with a Ford 460 and C6 transmission. Â ~35K miles. Â Sleeps 6, twin beds in back with a convertable table and fold down couch. Â
This was one of the first "basement" models, so it has some decent storage, but not what the modern coaches do.
100 gallon fresh water, 50 gallon black and grey water storage.
5500kw Onan Generator, not 100% sure on the hours but I'll check that and get things updated.
Decent tread wear on the tires, but I'd be inclined to put a new set of tires all the way around if you plan on driving it much. Â
It's an 1987 chassis, so it's carburated, not fuel injected. Â The engine runs well and sails through emissions, even without the airpumps hooked up. Â It'll cruise at 70mph all day long, sucking down 6 mpg. Â 90 gallon fuel tank with an external electric fuel pump. Â Last year I pulled the radiator and had it rodded and cored. Â At the same time I put a new water pump on. Â I also installed two B&M Supercoolers, one for the oil, one for the transmission. Â After doing all of this the old beast runs nice and cool, even in the summer here in AZ. Â The chassis A/C is disconnected, but all the hozes and compressor are still installed. Â I pulled the condenser to free up more airflow to the radiator. Â The front roof AC keeps the driver and pax cool, and it doesn't sap any power from the engine.
Hydraulic leveling jacks.
Here are a few pictures I've got, but they are old. Â It's a little more sunbaked at this point, and the awning has been removed (it was rotten and not mounted correctly, so I took it off).
$6K obo...
