i figured i had better put this up on here before selling it on ebay. I went a little overboard on repairs so it drove the price up . i need to get 2500 for it if anyone is interested. here is a list of what i have done to it. 1) clean and wax inside and out 2) new seat boards under the cushions 3) new living hinge throughout 4) roof rods to keep the roof in shape 5)new roof vent (used) and remount the roof vent 6) new windows 7) new screen 8) new floor tiles (15 year) 9)painted stove cover 10) replaced cushions with ones from a 77 good shape 11)removed rust from frame and undercoated 12)fixed all cracks in the abs and made leakproof 13)repaired all gas lines and soap checked all connections 14)refridge works well 15) furnace works well but blower hasnt turned on, it may be that it isnt cold enough for it it has a thermastat. 16)stove works beautifully 17) curtains old ones from mine i think there is a few other things i have done but the list is in the camper and its raining . it has a clear title that i got back yesterday . this is a really nice unit and in pretty darn good shape now, if anyone is interested let me know Rick i'm gonna list this on ebay on tuesday the 5th if nobody is interested. i have pics of it i can post later here. SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD

as a side note i am letting everyone know that the 1700 covers all the costs of the camper and material, i could never get compensated for my time on this. i just feel good taking an old apache and bringing life back into it. it was headed to becoming a trailer , because the owner didnt know how to fix it.

hey freedoom, It that the camper I slept in ? I may take a real interest in it in the next month or so. Nothing for sure; seems business is consuming most of my reserves right now. Of-course it is comming right back in, but it does grow a little each time and Lord knows I need it too. Rick, how 'bout some installment program? Just e-mail me at scdave449@hotmail.com. May save me the trouble of shopping around, and renovating one. Interested, and not quite broke. bless you and yours, your friend..............scdave

I would also like to see one go over 3 grand . well i'm getting lots of looks but no bids so far. after 36 hours it has 285 looks and 24 people have it on their watchlist. i think once bidding actually starts it will sell . i actually didnt expect to have that many watchers and lookers this early

Too many other ones up right now. I'd stick to my guns and get my price or hold and run it again. I'm thinkin Sept they may bring more when it cools a bit. Also thinking about bidding/buying the one in KC. My wife's sister lives there and I'm sure my wife would jump at the chance to go out there and pick it up. What do ya think about the KC one Rick? cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4563020097&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

i personally think the 77's and the 78's were the best they ever made. of coarse mine is a 77 . it appears to be in good shape, its the same model you have except has woodgrain interior which adds a layer. it still doesnt have the heater but would hold heat better , i think a ceramic would keep it comfortable enough. the fridge is also just an icebox more like a cooler and i can see it being more of a mess than anything. looks like it is nice inside though. you want a ramada like my 77 or maybe a 78 ramada , i think both of these models you would like better. i think it will reach at least 1000 , she has gotten a bunch of questions.

It has ac too. I don't understand how they got it raised but not unfolded. Something screwy there. I ain't got a grand to play with until I sell this ol 28 footer I have. Don't have a clear title to it yet but that's another can of worms I've got to sort out.

this one is a steal at the buy it now price. half the lift system would be 300 bucks a new chain would be around 80 bucks. it has the whole package the furnace , 3 way fridge, the good converter. looks like it is in good shape. someone should call scdave if nobody else wants it . it looks like a very late model 76 with all the characteristics of the 77 ramada except for the outside color. a lift chain cant be too hard to do . forgot the link lol cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&category=50064&item=4563250675&sspagename=WDVW
