Description
1986 Toyota Winnebago
I bought "Winnie" in May 2021 in Chattanooga, Tennesse and completed a 100% restoration of the coach/cab in July, 2022. She is a southern camper with zero rust underneath which is pretty rare for a 1986 Toyota truck. The mechanical are in excellent condition with receipts for all work performed and all parts installed.
During the restoration, I replaced most of the insulation, built new wall frames inside the coach then replaced the entire back wall and entire ceiling area including new ceiling beams and added LED lights internally and new LED marker lights and brake cluster light externally. I replaced all of the 1/4" luan plywood with new and installed a new luxury vinyl floor. I have multiple pictures and videos of the restoration and was very careful not to add weight.
Since the restoration was completed in August 2022, we have visited 33 states and travelled over 32,000 miles in Winnie without a single problem while taking somewhere between 65 and 75 camping trips. We are only selling because we bought a new four season travel trailer and don't have room for two RV's.

Additional:
I removed the original four burner gas stove to add counter space since we use an induction cook top. I removed the fresh water tank, and water pump to use that space under the dinette for storage. Those items will be included with the sale. We prefer to use the dinette as a sofa with pillows so a new 8 inch foam twin mattress and matching Eddie Bauer camping sheets will be included with the sale.
Water heater and propane heater are original and we have not used them since restoration. I believe all are in working condition.
Vehicle is in excellent condition and has been maintained as such. Vehicle is turn key with all maintenance and preventative maintenance performed and is road ready for any destination you wish to travel to. I listed some pictures showing gray wheel covers but she currently has black wheels and will be sold in that condition. Winnie brings lots of smiles on the road and lots of positive comments at gas stations and grocery store parking lots.
