The search is on... AGAIN

[Jay Darst]

Step up and buy my brothers 86FC35RB, it DOES meet your criteria.

I have been involved in alot/most of the updates to his Bird. The
inverter update is done nicely.

The list you described has been completed-
new uphosltery, carpet, air bags(all), tires(steer), shocks(all),
brakes, hoses(engine compartment, completely), power steering update
(common problem on FC's), 100,000 mile valve adjustment completed,
dog house reinsulated(properly and with very good material and
workmanship), frig replaced, all roof a/c's replaced, furnaces
replaced, air dryer serviced, spit valve serviced, has swing
radiator, has Remco power mirrors, we installed a $1,500 320amp
alternator which provides sufficient power to the inverter to run an
a/c unit.

this Bird is so ready to go... we ran 2,200 miles in March. Dan and I
run our buses, alot.

I don't know where you will find a FC like this, maybe one of the
Miller brothers...

Good Luck!
