Saw this gem recently in Maine

Road Chief ?

Wow, "gem" is right. Would have been fun to see the inside!
Nice find.

Innovative but kind off weird looking. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

A great job of restoration and unique for sure.

$137,000 !!

Kind of cool but I would be curious what kind of seals they use on the door if going down the freeway at 60mph in a rainstorm.

Door opens outward so air pressure forces it closed even tighter......non issue

Starting AT......

Only 20% down and $740/mo for 240 months at a low interest rate of 5%

That's right-----20 YEARS

It's not a restoration. It's a new unit, starting at only 137K.
I think it's a cool retro look.

While the door is unlikely to swing open due to air pressure, I'd like to see the seals that keep out a driving rain hitting the seams at 70mph.

door seals is under door that overlaps body so how will wind drive rain in the seal?
