$5000 is a pretty good opening bid if you consider how much it would cost to dismantle and truck that thing anywhere.

The ultimate Shagg'n wagon... A coupl'a funky windows, fuzzy dice, paint it red.  Use it to fly around and throw big parties.  If you ever run outta tequila you can just fly to mexico and pick up a couple of pallets without having to stop the party.

Then again, 1 inch to the gallon and I'm sure the oil changes are a little more expensive than $20.  Only Bill Gates and Larry Elliston could afford it...

She won't ever fly again - all avionics and the engines are removed. My guess is that they didn't waste time withmeticulously unbolting/unscrewing. Probably every wire involved has been cut and only the bigger tubes were actually disconnected. Refitting the cockpit to where it looked right would cost an arm and a leg in busted instruments.

But what a playhouse!
