One of the rarest RVs you will ever find. Toyota only made about 80 of these in the late 80"s and early 90"s. (Surprisingly easy to find parts, though). This is a 1994 Toyota Galaxy Fiberglass camper. Roemer NW in Seattle imported it last year and completely renovated it. My wife and I drove it all over the US from coast to coast in 2020 and it has been my daily driver since. Toyota claimed it slept 4. While I don"t recommend that, it was comfortable for me, my wife, and our dog. The last Galaxy sold sight unseen for $44,000. $44,000 before new wiring, a new electric panel. $5,000 in 300Ah of Lithium batteries/3000W pure sign wave inverter/solar panels, a new fan/vent with remote, a new Thetford cassette toilet, new water tank, new window seals, rebuilt front and rear axles, new tires, new belts, a Weboost antenna, new bumper, new transmission, new clutch, and the list goes on. Please refer to the build in the photos for a more comprehensive list of the work completed.
Mechanically, the Galaxy needs nothing. No leaks, rattles, weird noises. Starts immediately with no smoke. It is ready to go anywhere. After the road trip, we replaced all filters as well. The only known issues are that the hot water heater isn"t working and the propane cabin heater works intermittently. We actually planned to remove the propane heater because it takes up too much space under one of the dinette seats. Our Little Buddy Coleman heater is more than enough to heat the camper, it takes up less space, and it can be removed (obviously) during the Summer. I"ll include it with the sale. The roof fan is extremely powerful and makes the camper significantly more comfortable in hotter weather. It can be swapped out for an A/C unit. We bought a 5100 BTU A/C for our recent trip to the outer banks. I strapped the unit in the back of the camper, fabricated a vent to exhaust hot air out the back window, and put a drain hose directly into the shower drain. It worked great.
Roemer NW made some repairs to the fiberglass on the back of the camper. Structurally, the repairs were great but the color of the fiberglass patch is a lot whiter than the adjacent fiberglass. Again this is just cosmetic. The fiberglass is in excellent condition. When we"ve discussed keeping the Galaxy long term, we"ve looked into vinyl wrapping. (Google "Galaxy Yotarhome." It looks amazing). Cosmetically, the paint on the front of the original Hilux truck is in excellent condition. Looks new. So does the undercarriage. Again, Roemer went through nearly every mechanical component.
When I"m buying a vehicle, RV, boat, etc., I usually ask the seller if there is anything they would do if they were keeping it. I would replace the stripe decals, which I"m sure would be cheap at any Autobody shop. I would also possibly replace the interior fabric panels. They make the interior feel dated. The fridge is also original. It works great but also contributes to the more dated look inside the camper. Please do your research before bidding. If you know about these RVs, you know it"s unlikely you"ll have the opportunity to buy one again.
I"ll upload videos of starting and driving the Galaxy as well as more interior photos, including the inverter, the water tank, the undercarriage, etc.
Please message me with any questions or to schedule a time to see the camper in person or via FaceTime. I"ll ask for a 10% deposit paid within 3 days of the end of the auction. Full payment due within 7. I can pick you up from the Raleigh Durham Airport or assist with loading onto a carrier if you"re having it shipped.
