Title: Senator Charlie Wilson's Foretravel

I just stumbled on this while poking about on the 'net.  This has to be the strangest floor plan Foretravel ever produced.

You guys have a limited idea what "Built especially for you" could do.

Built quite a few wheelchair/ handicapped coaches with hand controls and ramps and a extra wide hallway..

Red hurlburt was the popcorn man.  Built a popcorn machine into the coach body next to the mid door FTX.  50 kinda of popcorn

Total emergency command post u300 40' for sheriff Tidwell of San Bernardino, ca. My salesman/buddy  Roger Tischendorf did a nice job on that one.

26' cia radio emissions sniffer with racks and antennas inside to cruise around so cal defense plants.

33' Empty shells with a potty in back. 

Varanthaned 40' SAI U300 for dr Unsell.  Looked like the new laminate coaches in 198i8.

On and on.  I built 37 custom coaches as manager.  Different counter depths, drawer location and sizes.  Was my  advantage.

Foretravel could and did literally build anything I could design. What fun.  Long ago.

Only way to make money was to customize the new ones and make the used ones look like the new ones interior wise.

I think most people on the forum know that Foretravel would build what ever you want if you had the money, a good example was the GV 295 built for Pat Martinez.
 There are  lot of us that have more knowledge than you give credit for.
