black] for privacy and sun control. also curtians all around. We have used
this unit for camping untill 2 summers ago when we bought a travel trailer
for longer trips now that I am retired. In the last 4 years I have replaced
the entire water system w new, Water storage tank 42 gal, New Water heater 6
gal, New Water lines in copper. Holding tank is about 40 gal. It also has a
new briskair 13,500 roof air conditioner. 1 yr old now, The floor is done in
hunter green indoor/outdoor carpeting front to back . The walls in bedroom
and bathroom have been wallpapered and wainscoated. Mech. info- The engine
is a 361 [big block] class 3 dedicated truck engine. New hoses and belts
,plugs, plug wires, points, yes points, no computers here, rebuilt starter,
flushed heating and cooling system, carb kit, new rocker arms, rebuilt water
pump. I installed a mini tach and vacum gauge also. [Uses some oil] Used to
be dual fuel gas and propane but is converted to gas now. Could be converted
back if 1 is so inclined. Components still there. The 60 gal built in
propane tank is now used for furnace,kitchen stove, water heater, and
fridge. There also is a rack in one of the lower compartments [open air]
with 2 small bottles of propane with regulator for useage if needed. The
thing I really liked about this bus is the air system. Air brakes, which BTW
I replaced air compressor with rebuilt, ALL air valves and lines replaced
with new and rebulit, Yes- they are spring loaded emergency/ parking brakes
on this unit. [cutting edge for the time] The air is used to pressurize the
water system if campground water is not available, the air seat for driver,
and the air horn that I got off a semi- tractor [ kind of fun for scaring
children in campgrounds] when they dawdle in front of you. Anyway the rear
tires have less than 5,000mi on rear- 4years old, The front tires I got with
the unit -no cracks good tread. The transmission is a 5 speed manual, single
speed rear axel. I replaced the old alternator with a rebuilt 78 amp and
electronic regulator. There is a lower compartment for a generator tho empty
now. Also I have an overhauled 361 not run yet engine for this unit. Yes I
have reciepts for all. I also installed a remote controlled yard light over
the entrance door, which is a winnabago style entrance door/screendoor
combo. Almost forgot- its got an awning on the passenger side. The color is
F-14 grey. Pricewise $4,500. Dont want the air conditioner? $4,000 Want the
fresh engine? $4500 You know-deal a bit. Tom Allemani 651-439-5806 or
