Holiday Rambler Repair in Yorba Linda
OCRV Center repairs Holiday Rambler coaches at our Yorba Linda facility, including long discontinued models. Parts availability is the defining constraint on these coaches, and in house fiberglass moulding is what makes them repairable when a dealer will call them a total loss.
Most Holiday Rambler work that comes through here is on coaches ten to twenty five years old, and most of it involves a part that is no longer made.
That is not a reason to write off a coach. A front cap can be moulded, an aluminum skin panel can be formed, and interior cabinetry can be fabricated. The question is whether it is worth doing, and that is arithmetic we put in front of you.
Can a discontinued Holiday Rambler still be repaired?
Yes, by fabrication rather than by ordering. We mould fiberglass cap sections in house from the surviving side of the vehicle or from a pattern taken off a donor coach, and we form aluminum skin panels here.
That capability is the reason an older Holiday Rambler is repairable at this facility when a dealer body shop will declare it a total loss. It is also why we are honest about cost, because fabrication is labor and labor on a legacy coach can exceed what the coach is worth.
- In house fiberglass cap and panel moulding
- Aluminum skin panel forming
- Donor pattern work where the original side is also damaged
- Interior cabinetry fabrication and finish matching

- Frame and chassis structural repair against specification
Which Holiday Rambler coaches do you work on?
The whole catalogue across its history, gas and diesel, motorhome and towable.
Monaco Coach Corporation built Holiday Rambler for many years alongside Monaco and Beaver, and those coaches share structure and components. A finding on one frequently applies to the others, which helps on parts sourcing.
- Endeavor and Navigator diesel pushers
- Ambassador and Imperial diesel coaches
- Vacationer and Admiral gas coaches
- Aluma-Lite and Presidential towables
- Discontinued lines across the Monaco era
What does it cost and when is it worth it?
Fiberglass cap repair $750 to $12,000 and up. Full cap replacement including moulding $4,500 to $25,000 and up at 30 to 120 hours. Full body paint $8,500 to $45,000 and up. Delamination repair $1,500 to $20,000 and up.
On a legacy coach those figures can approach or exceed vehicle value, and we put the number next to the value rather than taking the job. Some coaches are worth restoring because of what they are, and that is the owner decision, not ours.

Common Problems and How We Solve Them
The cap for my Endeavor has not been made in fifteen years.
SolutionWe mould it here, from the surviving side of the coach or from a donor pattern. Discontinued means fabricated, not unrepairable.
A dealer told me my coach is a total loss.
SolutionFrequently that means the parts are unavailable rather than the coach is beyond repair. We fabricate. We also tell you honestly what it costs so you can decide.
The clearcoat has failed across the whole coach.
SolutionFull body paint at $8,500 to $45,000 and up. On a structurally sound legacy coach that is sometimes excellent value and sometimes not, and we give you the arithmetic.
