I see those hearse motorhomes all the time on eBay.

I wonder if this beast could also fare as well as their plane did that had the stuck nose gear.

Airstream produced these at the suggestion of a former employee who also was connected to that industry. They also sold other custom coaches that were outfitted for special use..see of course the Nasa Astro Van still in use today.
There have been buses, and limousines, the funeral coach, and others.See last winters 'Airstream Life' for the history of the Classic motorhome.

I have seen a few posts about these units. I thought I read that they did not have kitchens, or maybe it was bathrooms. Can anyone explain what the differences are? I know that they have a very large storage area in the rear, and we all know what that was for.
