This thing is insane! Impressive work.
Thank you. And, I couldn't have done it without this forum (esp. the Van Camper forum now hosted by Ujoint), and other internet forums.

The following are out of the vehicle (deleted parts) as I used them in my new build. Note: Bracketry and mounting/wiring are intact, so it will be plug-and-play to replace the missing parts, if the buyer wishes to replace them. Also I will help in the planning/guiding the restoration process, including using my backyard and tools, if needed.
Deleted parts - exterior:
* Axles, wheels and tires
* Front leaf springs
1. Firestone ride-rite air bags on the rear axle
3. Front stabilizer bar
7. Rear panhard bar
15. 160W Solar Panels
Deleted parts - interior:
2. Moveable desk and one rotating captains chair
4. 5KW inverter (broken)
5. 4-pc T105 battery bank, 2 each side under the floor, with access from inside the RV.
7. Entertainment ctr with Dolby 5.1 DTS Receiver with DVD player Surround Sound system (cabinet is intact)
* Solar charge controller (mounting is intact)
17. Onboard 2-gal air compressor
18. Toilet with Tethford cassette
19. The Garmin GPS sensor under the windshield
20. Laptop rack, and 7-in rearview backup monitor
21. ARB locker switches
23. Battery isolator.
Oh, and the windshield has a crack from the wierd hailstorm in Phoenix. Also, note that this was an offroad, boondock-camping, rock-crawling, Baja rig - that means that the exterior has the distinctive pinstriping and scars.
The new price is $4000. For that price you get the 1998 GM L29 454 cu in Vortec engine, the 4L80E transmission, the BW 4470 transfer case, dual-alternator setup, which BTW are all in great running condition I wouldn't think twice driving it cross-country, and the fiberglass body/shell with the non-deleted exterior and interior parts, and of course the legend that comes with this rig

I, too, would like to see some interior shots. I went to your 'build' link, but nothing there of the interior. Maybe I've missed something.

I'll take some pics in a few days - I'll have to remove boxes and stuff inside since it's being used as "storage room" right now.
