The fact that the Admiral is on 22.5 wheels and the Mirada is not, suggests that the Mirada is built on a lighter capacity (lower GVWR) chassis. Empty, it might be nearly overloaded.
Tatest,
You actually have given me a lot of information in your post. I didn't know about interlocked walls - still not sure what I would look for to confirm whether or not they are. But good information none-the-less.
I am pretty sure this particular coach was made by Monaco. Depending on the source (like everything else) some people like Monaco... others don't - for what that is worth.
One thing I found TRUELY interesting is that they both have a GVWR of 22,000lbs. Considering that the HR has a higher UVW... it means that it is closer to being overloaded than the Mirada is.
I am learning more with each post!
It is a H-R gasser, so it was built either at the H-R plant in Wakarusa, or by R-Vision. C and A gas motorhomes in that era with brand names owned by Monaco Corp (H-R, Safari, Monaco) were built by one of those two Monaco Corp owned companies. The Monaco plant would have been building premium diesel pushers for those three brands.
So I'm not sure what you mean by 'built by Monaco' whether you think the Monaco division built it or just that Monaco Corp owned the company. If built by R-Vision, it would have been built by R-Vision only after Monaco Corp bought R-Vision, but would have been built differently than way Holiday Rambler built those three brands for Monaco Corp.
