I am looking for a complete, original, light avocado countertop for a 1971 Sovereign International, with rear bath. I'd also like to get the original Magic Chef stove that fits in the countertop. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I can't be of much help with the Magic Chef cooktop, but the countertop may be an easier solution. The last time that I was at my local building center the Formica countertop selection samples included several shades and variations of Avacado -- there was even a mint green not too far removed from what was utilized in later 1970s Argosy coaches.
Good luck with your projects!

That color should be taken out and shot!!!
Is the Magic Chef a three- or four-burner unit? Also, does it contain an oven, or is the oven separate in that particular coach? I may possibly have a three burner stove with an oven for that trailer. It is stainless steel colored.
I have a four burner drop in cooktop that I believe is original. I will have to check if it is Magic Chef when I get home. The countertop is a yellowish color if interested.
I'd definitely be interested. The guy who owned it before the guy I bought it from did a hatchet job, when he replaced the counter. Actually, if you're willing to part with more of the galley cabinetry, I'd be much obliged.

Reason: Just want to add my thanks to everyone for their reply
Turns out that the countertop is light avacado, very light. It is more green than yellow and the accent color on the oven is avacado as well, if that is an indicator. I cant tell if the stove is Magic Chef for sure but I am relatively sure that it is original equipment. I can send pics if you like if that helps. I have been kicking around a remodel of the galley so I could probably be talked out of more stuff.
