This post is temporary for the purpose of helping BB's widow sell his GMC stuff. Mrs. Petit is the recent widow of Maurice "Bebe" Petit who used to work on these coaches in Prescott, AZ. She is now liquidating the estate with the help of her brother Bob Broos. Any and all questions and negotiations should be directed to them at 928-445-9432.
The items for sale are listed below and there are photos of everything below that.

26ft 1976 Eleganza - VIN TZE166V101295 - equipped with aftermarket electronic Accell ignition with timing adjustment, numerous extra temp gauges, transm cooling pan. Dual exhaust, Onan generator. Undercarriage appears to be in very good shape. Passenger side chasis rail storage tray. Main door seal has leaked, some headliner drooping.. So far I have only had time to turn the engine through by hand prior to running the starter. It has not started yet, but oil pressure comes up immediately. It will need new tires prior to hitting the road - it has been sitting for 10 years
two original fold out sofa back/upper cots,
several sets of original front seats
full bath module
Quadrajet carburetor
3 new GMC air compressors
They also have a completely gutted 76 Palm Beach - Body and chasis look to be in good shape - this one is a complete empty shell resto. According to Nancy it ran when they parked it years ago.
And for the owner who almost has it all, the 4 post hoist is also for sale!
