Spotted online..'94 U280, anyone here recognize it?

1994 Foretravel Unihome U280 Cummins Diesel with Allison Transmission - Dallas,

This is the drivetrain I was hoping to land. I just never found it in my price tolerance. Geeze, 16k seems like a steal. If I knew anyone looking for a vintage coach I'd tell 'em to haul down to Dallas and get an oil analysis done on this and snap it up quick!

I wouldn't trade Moby the White Whale for it though...irrational fondness has set in...

I suspect that this ad was placed by one of the many Brokers that troll the web.  They seem to live under rocks and come out whenever they think that there is a naive sucker in the area. I have been plagued by these guys wanting to sell my coach but they will never come up with a buyer and they want paid in advance.

Googling the main website shows it's a scammer/web troller.  Not a real dealer or classified site.

Thanks y'all. That's why I asked if anyone here recognized it, if so the ad would have gotten instant credibility. I kinda recall seeing ads like this when we were shopping, that disappeared into the mist when you tried to follow up. I was goi g to fwd this to someone but now I think not!
