A unquie conversion for the ones that wants to be different

late 80's half the large yachts in Newport RI had a chopper on top. we used to laugh and wonder if any of them flew. Then of course it had to happen, saw one that had TWO helo's on top lol.

His and Her's choppers?

Nothing wrong with caging the parking brakes on a stored vehicle.

In fact, more busnuts should adopt the practice to keep the linings from bonding to the drums and making trouble for the Spring.

I see a Detroit and a shifter for an automatic.

Some interesting aerodynamic touches...

This thing would be neat to take for a spin, but wow, lots of work ahead for someone!

happy coaching!

NO

I agree, totally ugly and no place for it as an RV conversion. There may be some commercial marketing type use for it, though I can't imagine what it might be.

It has a fifth wheel you guys are out of touch here lol the trend now is have a 53 ft trailer converted to a RV with the roof slides to make a 2 story and the side slides to double the width and that is a unique tractor and I have saw a lot worse looking buses.
If only I were a little younger but the plate is full now and time is running

Here, Here Clifford, I think that truck & trl is the BOMB!!! I think I'll ask Christi if I can bid on it

M&C

Hey Clifford I just had another brainstorm! ...................
Yeah look out...........but seriously this is a GREAT one! (but then again ain't all of mine?)

You could build a platform in the rear of the trailer that the "fuselage" of you new project would fit on and leave the tail & rear rotor sticking out the back!

Now I garun-damn-tee ya it would definitely get alot of attention! I can hear people saying "Wow I've heard of and seen stretched "limo's & other vehicles before, BUT.............THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I EVER SAW A STRETCHED HELICOPTER!

Maybe it could work as a fun house at the fair.....

Singing Land Cruiser · March 12, 2011, 06:34:52 AM

Wow, Christi said I can call the bank! She said if they will lend the money the Beast, I can have it.........Just don't go over 10k. Then I would have to get it to St. George, Utah. I may need some help on this one. !st things 1st, I'm going to call the bank.

M&C I got a great wife!

It needs a rocket pod and a couple of missiles mounted under the wings to clear out the slow moving traffic... Probably wouldn't have to use them, a glance in the rear view and the intimidation factor would probably convince them to let you around...

If I saw that thing in the mirror is I would hastily beat a path out of it's way. A lot of neon should be placed under that one!

Micheal, let me know if ya need assistance!

If you watch this you'll see some extra features on the truck which aren't mentioned in the advert:

Highwayman Intro & Transformation Scene - DVD Release Action

(Oh, and I hope Jimmy Smits fired his agent soon after this series came out. Mad Max it's not).
