For that price, I'd buy a nice WL, trailer, the toys, and still be ahead.

I did like the suspended swivel chair

all that and a 5.9 cummins with propane injection.
the floating chair may be fun to ride in!
I wonder if the microwave is vented to the outside?
The CAC pipes are interesting,i would polish them to make them noticeable.

I read about that Frankenstein bus. They grafted a heavy frame from a larger truck to th rear, with heavy axles, steel framing everywhere, and hopped up the 5.9…. I suspect it wont live a long life, but they say the bus moved along a-ok.

I have several thoughts concerning this project !

1– I’m sure glad that I didn’t spend that much time, effort, and money on such an ugly unicorn.

2– The old used car salesman saying comes to mind—- there’s an a$$ for every seat —- they just need to find one with a pocket full of money and very little class or common sense. They are out there but scarce as Hens Teeth !!

3 — Just because you can doesn’t mean you should

4 —- Good Luck with getting anywhere near 150 grand out of that Stink Bomb !!!

And I have several more but I think you probably get my drift that I’m genuinely not impressed

Not doubt it will be a very hard sell
But keep in mind it’s used for racing snowmobiles
And I’m sure that is a black hole for you money also
You can see the quality of the work in every picture
Mismatch panels and missing fasteners
But it got a really cool logo on it!
