Welcome Narrowrd!! That is one fine looking coach!! I was interested in this one also but didn't work out. I really hope all is well with everything on it. I know it does need tires and batteries etc but for the price you got it for once you do these things and the engine etc checks out you will have one nice coach for a great price!! If you ever make it through Grande Prairie be sure to look us up!!
I dont think Newell really had an operations manual as such that I know of, you just have to use it, ask questions about specific things on the forums' and we will help solve issues as you go. It does take some time to get aquainted with these coaches, they are quite complex. So feel free to ask and we will do our best to answer your questions.If you cant find it in the forum someone here will be sure to help!! that is what its is all about
