It has high miles and needs a fresh water tank, but at $5,400 I feel like I stole it!

Thanks guys! Even though it looks great in the pics it needs a lot of work and TLC, but I can't wait for it to be done.

I like it. I would admit to being jealous too but I'll get over that. It looks great. That's my all time favorite class B. Enjoy the heck out of it.
Stay safe man..

Looks good!

I was just reading about these last week - there is a low mileage 94 (460 CID) for sale near me. Tons of good reading on the links above...

Resist the temptation to put a 6.0 in,the V10 is a better engine but do check the spark plug torque.

You shoudn't be tempted to do this. Fix the V10 if/when it needs to be.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! ๐Ÿ™‚ Pics to come soon. I've already been to the B190 forums to try to resolve the missing fresh water tank issue.
