what year is this coach

Actually it doesn't matter what country or state it is licensed in. Vehicles built in multi-stages may get what is called an IVD, which stands for Incomplete Vehicle Document. Once the coach builder builds the coach, the coach is given a permanent VIN number by the coach manufacturer. Once the coach manufacturer assigns the new VIN number, the IVD becomes invalid. Since the coach was built in the USA, the IVD became invalid before it left the factory. Doesn't matter where it ends up, the permanent VIN number was assigned by Newmar. The paperwork that you have for the chassis IVD should be set aside and should not be used as a legal document, as it is no longer valid.

The CHASSIS VIN is still the VIN for the MSO and will be the VIN for the First original Title. The Title on a Motorhome should ALWAYS have the chassis VIN and NOT any SERIAL number that the RV maker assigns to it. The RV maker will assign a SERIAL NUMBER on a Motorhome, not a VIN. They will use the chassis VIN. A Trailer will have a VIN assigned to the trailer FRAME and that is the VIN the trailer will be titled on. Doug
