It is in a delivery bay if it is the one owned by MOT.  Just saw it a moment ago when talking to the remod fabric shop upholstery lady, Trina.

IF it is the one I saw, bays clean, looked good, decals peeling some.  But I did not try to look closely.  Is a 320 with Girard.

IF want me to do more, send me a PM.  (I do not do inspections like Risch or Wolfe, but can give you some overall impressions for Forum members as friends)

Again, if it the one you are talking about, it has a fairly recent MC number, 172-- as I recall.

I think Dave Cobb would want me to help!  He doing well enough from the second surgery....good to say.  Now just take it easy, fully heal.

and if cream coloured and the one we saw in late 2015 at FT I did go in it but I seem to remember some water intrusion in driver wall area. Not very well looked after either and musty smell. I also think this was at around $120k then but has come down drastically.
I would definitly look closely all over it,

Haven't seen the coach, but regarding water intrusion... 

I don't know if the GV's are the same as the U series in this respect, but on the U series water marks seen on the driver's wall can be from old front cap marker lights that have cracked lenses, and/or cracked gaskets.  Water enters the lens covers, then exists out the back where the bulbs plug in.

It's easy to replace these with sealed LED units, and then seal around the exterior of new marker lights with something like 3M 4000 UV.

Smells...  That's a different topic.

There's no longer a 2000 GV320 on FOT's site (it was there a long time).  I don't have it in my browser cache to see if the one at MOT is the same coach.

I had seen the GV320 at FOT a few times, I do not believe this is the same one.
