It was long wheelbase. I spent a ton of weekends not to mention money trying to convert it into my own person Class B. When I got done I realized I had spent way to much and still didn't have anything near what I wanted. The investment in time alone was counter productive. So I sold it. Took that money, saved a bit more and bought the rig I wanted professionally converted. Much happier now. More power to the people who have the energy to undertake these "projects", but I believe most people just don't realize how hard it is to restore used RV's.
