Number on back of coach?

The FT that we are considering has a number on the upper left corner:  15799.  Is this a FMCA or FT number?

Is there a way to identify the PO from this number? The number on the back of mine is a Family Motor Coach Assoc #378107...

I searched for it at the FMCA Website, and that membership number no longer shows up in the current member directory.

I understand that it belonged to Paul and Linda Haid.  Does anyone know them?  It would be helpful to know the history of the coach.  It was mentioned in the renovations section that it had been painted.

It's a sad deal when a coach has no paperwork/"baby pictures."  ::)

I found his number and had a long conversation with him.  He gave me a lot of information with regards to the upgrades he made (too long to list here) and the maintenance.  He is also going to send me his "thick file" on the coach.  Many thanks to Richard Bark for coming up with his name.

Much thanks to Sven and all the others. The VIN to my coach is 4CDN6BK21M2900946. If the info you receive pertains to this coach, I will pay shipping costs to be able to view same...

George - I just called that number and woman said no Paul & Linda there. Said they might be a client of theirs  but they could not give any info. I Left my number for her to give them if contact was made I 'splained about getting my info from the forum. She said she would e-mail them....(did she just give it away??).

Thanks much for your time and effort,

Jim if I am reading this right your number is a FMCA number that is no longer an active member. The Foretravel motorcade number for Sven is the one that had a name and number. The 2 coaches in question are not the same coach so the information would not be for your coach
