Vehicle description
This unique motor home was named "Lucy" by the previous owners in honor of Lucile Ball. There was a book, "Freedom" written about their adventures going to Art Fairs across the country. There is a lot of information on the Internet about these antique, collectible vehicles. They certainly an attention getter. This is the fourth one of these that I have rescued. Health issues forces me to sell "Lucy". She is powered with a 350 Chevy V-8. Power-Glide transmission, and has Chevy Corvette rear axle and suspension. The original springs have been replaced with air bags.
