All extra parts- caulking- pieces etc. will go with her. We removed the original gas heater thinking to make more storage since we had the heat strip
heater will go with unit and was working and checked by gas co for leaks
Inspected and registered Some finishing touches needed.
It was our dream to retire and travel old route 66, sadly my husband was in a severe car accident- we even hired a handyman to help put her back together. My husband says his camping days are over and would prefer a luxury hotel. I have held onto her for longer than I should have hoping that he may change his mind. She was an estate find: sitting on a lakeside lot for many years.
We named her “Io” from Greek mythology. Io was a ladies maid to Hera who Zeus made advances towards. She rebuffed him and Zeus turned her into a black and white cow- forever destined to wander the earth. Seeing as Vermont is known for its cows….. we thought it fitting. Would love to see someone realize our dream.
Please call with any questions. We welcome anyone wishing to give her a full inspection. A lot of time and money went into this thus far and we are confident you will not find any better out there.
