Although I haven't spent time on this board I really appreciate the Foretravel community. In fact, here is no way I could have gotten my vintage coach out of the driveway without the advice of James Holder. He has been a lifesaver.
We have enjoyed our motorhome for the past 5 years and I have spend countless hours upgrading and renovating. However, we are going to go full-time now and we need a bigger rig. So I thought I would post some photos of the renovated rig (unfortunately I don't have the before pics) so everyone can see what a beautiful coach she is.
Thanks to everyone for being such a welcoming and friendly community!

Wow! ^.^d
That is a VERY impressive restoration. My most sincere congratulations on a remarkable work of rolling art. Looks museum quality to me!
I would think the Foretravel factory would have some interest in owning this classic. Would be a great showroom display addition.
GREAT WORK!
Very nice Tim.....Yes, James is the PRO.!
Awesome restoration. Proves what everyone here on the Forum say: Foretravel coaches have great "bones" and are worth saving.
Very nice job on a quality coach! You did well!
Nice work on the coach. Are you movin on up to a bigger Foretravel ??
Thanks for the compliments, everyone.
We took the motorhome to the factory a couple of years ago to show her off but they didn't really seem too interested at the time. So I'm not sure they would want her or not. But it would be fun to have her in the showroom :)
Also, we haven't decided what we're going to buy just yet.
That is an incredible restoration - looks factory-new! And James Holder is a gem :)
Don't be put off by the factory's lack of interest - they have moved in a different direction and given they're no longer owned by the Fore family, but an investment group, they have a different approach to things. I wonder if the RV/MH Hall of Fame Museum might be interested in it?
WOW!
Call the Jack Sisemore RV Museum in Amarillo Tx.

A really nice private museum with a lot of RV history there.
We saw that Flxible coach awhile back. They sure didn't do anything to it. Inside was totally crapped out. Nothing like in the movie RV.
Man... that is one sweet ride. I'm envious.
Bravo- the classics had so much- class!
Chevrolet chassis was a thousand dollar option. 4 wheel disk brakes. Most showed an easily fixable soft spot in the hallway floor by the bath. Drove very well.
