THE BOX - FOR SALE!

You've probably seen it, loved it, and may have even pee'd out of it while moving.
It has come time... I can't keep it.
I need the space and the $ to invest in other exciting things!
Quickly here's the details:
1982 Dodge Sprinter
35' w/hitch
8 Wheels, 2 singe axles and 1 dually
Shower, toilet, queen size bed, double kitchen sink
less that 60k miles, rear air suspension, runs and rides great!
Water Tanks, Waste Tanks, Propane tank, i don't know the sizes.
I never got to do what i envisioned for this PARTY RV!
I wanted to rip out the bathroom and bedroom and make a bar and keg holder, a DJ booth, and an external sound system.
Here's what needs attention: The roof leaks, air conditioners both are broken, skylights are broken (damn people climbing on the roof!), and the tires should be replaced in the next 1000 miles.
Other than, it's ready to ROCK!

we can still do all that stuff with my schoolbus. good luck finding a home. good luck finding a buyer; i'm sure there's some down-on-his-luck AA cat trying to get on his feet who will really appreciate it.
...or you can sell it to dennis woodruff.

Maybe I'm missing the joke but that entire statement seems very judge mental and kind of assholeish.I'm really hoping that there is some kind of super funny inside joke I don't know about that makes this guy not seem like a self-rightous prick.

i used to live in a bus and had to shower at the ymca. i know for a fact that there are a lot of desperate people who would really love to come up on a running housecar with a place to shower. they used to offer to buy or rent my bus all the time.
didnt mean to sound judgemental. it could really help someone out.

Richie, increase the price substantially and offer it to LACMA or LAMOMA as an important L.A. cultural artifact / mobile piece of urban art.
With the pieces on the side and the video, it would make a great installation at either museum.

Ohhhh, NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Can't you just rent it? There are plenty of people living on Riverside Drive and on Gower. Maybe someone would be happy to move into it and rent it from you on a month to month basis.
Franz??? :-)
