Title: 1980 coach pictures
Post by: piratetexan on November 21, 2013, 10:45:58 pm
I am thinking of buying a 1980 Foretravel coach and restoring it over time. I have searched the internet for pictures, but not much luck. Any help would be wonderful

plus lot of roof leaks and window leaks too for a start. This unit has sat for a long time and I feel there will be a lot of hidden damage in it.

If the video is the coach you are looking at RUN  as fast as you can.  The right side delamination is a sign that there is MAJOR water damage and no telling what is not visible. 
JImmy, is this just a generic video ?

Gary, I only posted that because Piratetexan posted he couldn't find any pictures of a 1980. I just googled 1980 Foretravel and images, this was one thing that came up.

Several months ago there was a 77 or 78 for sale here on the forums. It was in northern Fl. The owner said that it ran and he was asking 2,000  for it if I remember correctly. Happy hunting
