Saw this coach and thought it was unlike any coach I have ever seen! Goes to show that Newell really is a custom coach!

I modified some of the photos with Photoshop so as to actually be able to see into the darkness. The $50,000 bid must reflect the collectors value as I saw that a lot of work was needed. There is considerable rust in the engine compartment.

Interesting that in 1986 the exterior design was 1930's streamline.

For those interested in something to collect on this, here is a real small version.

Here is a combo image of the four views of the outside.

One of the pictures on Ebay shows where the exterior design for this coach came from....it matches the styling of the semi tractor/trailer used to haul the race car.

I saw this coach up close several years ago. I heard there were concerns about the extra weight added by replacing the aluminum "siding" with stainless steel.
