A real piece of history up for sale

Wouldn't it be fun to own one of the Streamliners???

GMC : Futurliner | eBay

That thing is really neat. There is a motor home running around down here that I have seen a couple of times that is styled like a Cadillac, with fins and all. It wasn't something someone just did themselves, it was a factory job. Wish I had a camera when I saw it, looked very art deco.

I wonder if that's the one that Barrett-Jackson sold a couple of years ago. If memory serves me right it went for 7 figures.

I kind of wondered that too, but if I read the auction right this has been in the same hands since 1998. I don't know how current this is but here is a rundown of where they are.

I've always wondered if any of the first generation of streamliners surive.

I saw the Futureliner at the "Back to the 50's" show last year. It looked like one good gust of wind would tip it over. It was pretty cool to get in it though.
