What is your best off? For the whole thing? It's not really what we are looking for but give me your best. To be honest, I'm aways from $1250. Probably close to $500 to get my wife to budge. If you do break it down, I may be interested in the glass.

I understand the position and towing it aint cheap. Honestly the interest in parts is enough to insure getting $800 minimum and the running gear would be basis for a great rat rod

Sure, I completely understand. If it were a 220/210 I'd be in. Just not exactly what I am looking for. For me it's $400 tow and $1500 in tires, so I'm just shy of 2k without the cost of the unit itself, so at 3k I'd really like to get what we really need/want. Like you said, there are plenty of good parts. I'm sure you can probably get a bit more than 1250 from the parts like you have said. I may be interested in glass, but i'm not buying any parts until I have a travco in my hands

RCB...here is an ad for a 220... If you don't mind wading thru stupid photos of horses and other BS to reach the actual travco\nphotos. Got Po'd wading thru the junk, (presume to be "cute") until I saw the pics...\nwas a turn off for me and I think others as it has been buried and for sale amid other pics for quite a while...\nhttps://yakima.craigslist.org/rvs/4838471519.html\nIf want to see here it is... supposedly a "turn-key" unit...FWIW\nBBB (posted on 01/16/15

Thanks! I saw that. There is a guy a couple hours from me selling two with titles for 2500. I'm going to try and get over there the next couple weeks.\n\nAs much as I like the Travcos, that guy is offering me a sweet deal on that 40s ford transit bus. It's not what I wanted, but I can't argue with the price.

hhhmmmm.... \nI keep remembering sumptin' about how sweet a deal is and later the bitterness that comes with it as it's turning out not being so...or sumptin' like that... Take your time and try to think of the reality of a hard money costing logistic... At times after a supposed "deal"... I find myself in so deep, and realize its time to quit...I off it in many different manners, chalk it up to a loss. (As in getting screwed once in a while) and continue on a different mission...in this "deal"... parts availability is paramount to winning this one..FWIW...\nBBB

Certainly. At worst it'd be a very cheap shed but its in better mechanical condition than a rolling shed. We will see. Those two travcos are running, but one is gutted. The other looks to be ok.

Thank you! I sent a message to him. Heck the tires alone are 1500 if it's the 17.5s.
