I'm not sure if this is for real or a joke -

For sale?

If he wanted an aerodynamic unit why is he selling it? More time and money than sense?

Shoulda used a Toronado graft and saved a bundle.

I have seen several, some with the Toronado cockpit and at least one (here in town) with the driver sitting in the Airstream with only the Toronado hood and front end grafted on. They worked out pretty well, according to the owners.

He will be lucky to get a dime on the dollar of his asking price.

Bet I can put a Barth class C on a Sprinter chassis and save over 1/2 million $$$$$$.
That said, It is pretty cool. Thumbs Up

That his address is "Santa Barbara" answers all questions

I dunno................not many folks up there do their own work, let alone such an undertaking as this.

Or maybe he hired it out. That would explain his high asking price.

Emerson said, "Beauty is it's own excuse for being."

Perhaps that thing is really getting uglier on its way to self-destruction. Smiler

Looks to me like he took the most over-priced trailer, stuck it on the most over-priced van body, and turned it into the most over-priced vehicle in history.

Good grief....

Why did he waste so much time, money and effort and not go ahead and at least paint the darn van silver to match the trailer....


Should I buy this at 575,000 or get a nice used Prevost, Bluebird, Newell....??????

Duhhhhhhh......

a half-million dollar graft should not be painted silver, it should be PLATED silver, except for the wheels, which need to be diamond dust coated.
