One can really make them one of a kind head turning very usable coaches. I think there is tons of value in them and they should be sought after more than they seem to be, there wasn't that many built and there are going to be less of them as the years go on. There is a lot of people that fix up old cars and trucks and put tons of money into hotrod engines, nice paint jobs and upgraded parts, I think these classic and vintage Newells deserve the same treatment.

We love our coach but you are right it's always a pleasure seeing a vintage coach on the road. Seeing people who are keeping the Classic Newells alive and on the road is fantastic. If you have it in you Keith the more power to you. It keeps the values up when people like you are making sure the older Newells are still out their restored rolling down the road.
