Well,... I just bought it a little more then a month or so ago from the 
original owner, Bruce MacCormack. I have done little more then take out the 
carpet and clean!
Everything looks great and is supposedly in working order. I have it stored 
at a local RV place (fenced and locked) that has a wonderful service dept. I 
did have the underneath checked by my friend that does auto body work and he 
said it was solid!
It will need new tires for sure before I go too far and I will have the 
brakes checked....bearings packed etc. 
I  will have the summer off as of Mon. so I can get started learning about 
the AC...awnings....water....electric...etc. When it was towed to where it is 
now the lights seemed to work fine. The frig. looks good and no ammonia 
smells. I want to learn the electric as well as the propane works of 
everything this summer before I travel anywhere. I would like to retire in 5 
yrs. so I have plenty of time to LEARN and PLAY before any serious 
excursions! I have sold my Volvo and bought a new pickup to pull my AS and 
have decided on a Hensley A. hitch. I used to belong to the WBCC but sold a 
previous AS purchase before ever getting to travel in it. (It was too big for 
me to haul by myself ...29') 22' seems just right. I will rejoin WBCC when I 
am ready to hit the road. I am really not going to decorate with vintage 
upholstery etc. ....just want to make it comfortable enough to travel 
anywhere. Bruce took out the original sofa bed in the  living room and put 2 
heavy swivel chairs and attached an old AS fold out table between them. At 
first I was going to put the sofa back in but the chairs are growing on me! 
There is no stove ...I have a hard time believing this man and his family 
traveled 37yrs without one...but they used a microwave and a propane camper 
stove to serve their needs. I might look in to having a stove top put 
in....there is a place for one....but not now.
I have to get to work.
Would love to be in this discussion all day. I'm getting addicted!
