Took Trish to lunch yesterday and saw this old motorhome in the parking lot. So I went over to talk to the owner and I "think" he said it was an 87' ventage. He was nice enough to let me see the inside and take a few pictures. Thought it was pretty cool!

Sweet! Really well done!
 
Wow! That is really something, and in wonderful condition. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Very nice - reminds me of the early Foretravel coaches.
 
Very nice, but the 10 year rule could keep that out of some campgrounds and that would be a shame.
 
Wow that is very cool. A 27 year old coach in that condition. Was that a gas or diesel engine?

Chrysler 440 - pusher. Not very many rear engine gas coaches made.

It sure won't keep him out of mine! I made sure to give him a card and turns out, he lives pretty close to Franklin. He said he had heard about our park and that he was looking forward to booking a site for a few days.

It's a diesel. Sure would liked to have seen it, bet you could eat off of it!

Right - the 440 gas units were earlier - 70’s and early 80’s.
