You will note that the price is $49,500. But if you look at all of the pictures and read what has been done to it, you can understand the price. There are more nice FMC's out there than one would expect.

Enjoy!

Looks like a modified type "M"? I can see a fridge, where's the sink and stove??

BTW, #110 is still for sale, but unadvertised ;-)

I'm sure someone spent that kind of money on having "someone" else do all the work, but to me it's dated now.

"Dated now" means they did work, walked away, and now it is not attractive to you

I hope someday your work, or your pay for the work, will somehow hope to unload your work and sell your unit.

In any case, good luck and let us all know how that worked out for you. Best wishes for the upcoming holiday!

I would go for maybe a modified 'Club' model except for the dinette.

Given the 49 thousand dollar 500 price tag, I feel I am perfectly able to be open with any criticism or opinions on this coach. This seller put it on Ebay for the world to see. First of all, I do not have the finances nor the resources to do this amount of work to any vehicle, let alone a house on wheels. Cudos to the people who do, they create works of art for all to enjoy. This coach is beautiful. I'm just not feeling the mauve and teal colors, and the white wash cabinetry. That was IN back in the 90's and maybe bleed into the early 2000's. And i personally feel for 49k, the FMC better have an up to date set of running gear, not a 440\727...MO

I do all my own work, if someone's going to mess my coach up, it'll be me.

I try and be an active member of the FMC community so we have something to read too.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

I agree with ypu on the colors, but that can be updated, as well as the cabinets. What would scare me would be the lack of information on the transmission and the brakes, and the mileage on the engine. If the engine was a proper 413, it may go longer. In most circumstances, a 440-3 will soon need rebuild with that mileage. The tube type TV also is very dating.

The coach, 920, that I just bought is an extensive redesign. Documentation is sparse and the new wiring layout is often hard to figure out. Also, it is all electric - no profane.

I will set up an album before Christmas.

Well, at least there's a "Best Offer" option...LOL!!!
Nothing wrong with "big game fishing"...sometimes you pull in a whopper; but, when you're hungry, you head to the kelp beds and pull in a calico bass and call it good..
