Vehicle Details
COLLECTOR’S VEHICLE or MUSEUM EXHIBIT! A head-turner—no one has ever seen one! I tried to find it online. So far it doesn’t exist.
Custom made for TV/News company by US Motor Corp. Limited edition.
I am the third owner. I bought this van in June 2015. It had 31,000 original miles. It has been kept in a garage until May 2024. The odometer stopped working at 37,198 miles after a few years. It has only driven a few hundred miles each year since then. I estimate the mileage to be around 41k or 42k now.
It used to have a roof-top A/C unit. I removed it and installed a second opening skylight.
The previous owner moved the battery to behind the driver’s seat (more accessible). They also removed the generator, installed storage units, and built an excellent folding bed platform over a storage box. Plus a stainless steel sink (faucet not connected), & water tank.
