Two questions: 1.) Where in the world did you find a 4-door cabover......and, 2.) Is the coach section integrated into the cab. If not, why not? Thanks.
We added another rear in front of the old one over the winter. This motorhome is now twin screw drive. No more rocking when we enter a parking lot. It rides like a tour bus now.
@bbitterguitar The grill is on the front of the truck, The engine is right behind it. This is why Cabover trucks are different from regular conventional trucks. On cabovers you sit on top of the engine.
@raykeens This is so cool! Only thing i'd do is move the stacks in behind the sleeper; just looks better in my opinion. You happen to know how much this cost to build?
@Fireheart528 Well I wont say how much we spent. But its nothing ridiculous. A lot people think we spent 100s of thousands of dollars on this project. Heh no. Alot of the things we used were old parts and pieces we've had for years.
@raykeens Thats what i had thought at first bc it does look like it rolled right out of the showroom floor. I'd use a Mack for the base myself, or a K100 cabover.
I seen this rig at Myrtle Beach, and he turned every head in the campground when he pulled in. Top shelf work and an excellent custom camper. I loved it.
We visit a lot of Nascar tracks where size of motorhomes doesn't matter. A few times we stayed at campgrounds when we were visited people, and luckily we called ahead to see if there was room for us.
There's no limit to anything. As far as towing goes, he can tow a car or any vehicle behind the truck on that lift. I know one time we went to VA for dragracing. Instead of using the forks, he put a ball there to tow a racing trailer.
Oh man! That is SOOOO cool!!! It must have cost him a freakin' FORTUNE to build! Whether you're rich or poor, it's nice to have money! lol! I wish I had an RV...I could save a thousand bucks a month in rent! Great vid!
lol thanks Im not sure if you would same a lot of money. It depends on what the fuel prices are like and how much you use the generator or drive. Hey thanks for the comment!
My dad built the truck himself in his shop. It took about two years to do. I once created a bus out of legos when I was a kid and it had the stacks out the back like this. Thats where he got the idea.
dam bro nice job.
