    Description

    Please read this in it's entirety before bidding.  Shuttle is about 60 feet long.  It is about 10 1/2 feet wide with the wings folded in.  This is considered a wide load.  Wings unfold with a controller making the unit 36' feet wide from tip to tip.  Wings can be separately lowered so if you want to push the shuttle against a wall, you can leave that wing in the up position.  Tail is 12ft tall when inflated.  It may need repairing.  Generally, if outside and wind is more than 7 mph, the tail flops around and therefore we keep it stowed.  The truck comes with it as a bonus, therefore you are buying the shuttle and getting the tow vehicle for .  We remodeled the interior several years ago.  New paint, new seats, etc.  There are computers inside, but those are outdated and therefore not used.  Instead, we show a video on the screens and occupants can play with the switches at console, etc.  We have generic ipads at the stations as well, but those are 7 years old.
    You will probably want to create your own presentation.  We have the original software that linked all the computers to each station, so you might want to take that cool software and graphics(23 years old), update it, load it to the cloud, and run a presentation from that.
    We have a cool led light systems inside, a great sound system that shakes the vehicle on lift off, and other things to enhance the display.
    The engines have their own smoke systems, but were not working the last time I have this on display.  The shuttle has two air conditioner units that need to be recharged as well as a heater.  One a/c unit might have a leak.  Comes with all stairs needed.
    Most of the tires are newer, but 2 may need to be changed.  There is some cracking on the outside along with paint fading.  The engines are fiberglass connected to wood mountings that are rotting.  You will need to fix.
    The truck currently is not registered and will need to be fixed.  We weren't getting fuel to the carb so it might just need a new pump. Also someone tried to remove some wheel nuts and I think they bled the hydraulic fuel.  A/C unit on truck doesn't work.
    Battery to lower wings via hidden winches might need to be replaced.  Again, ask any questions before buying as it is being sold as is.
    The 9 screen display up front inside has some issues.  These are old tube tv's and need to be replaced.
    You need a generator to power the shuttle...a large kw generator on wheels that you can rent from rental places.  We have the giant extension cables to hook up to the generator and shuttle.
    There are various things here and there that need attention, but I have described most of the larger items to be dealt with. You are getting as is, and I will work with you to learn how to operate and be available by phone in the future for any help necessary.
    Truck and trailer I believe are 13' 4 inches which is fine for 99% of all bridges in the US.  It might be lower, but it will fit anywhere height wise that a standard trailer will fit.
    I have the weight and length of complete vehicle somewhere in my paperwork.  I believe it is less than 80ft, and 44k lbs.  Which puts it in the middle of classification of large vehicles making it less to register than the highest tier.  Currently it is not street registered and will need a safety inspection, insurance, and tags...unless you have it towed by a wrecker...which we have done in the past.
    We have had it on display where lots of people visited, and places where nobody came.  You have to have it in the right location.  Airshows, high traffic venues, tourists locations, etc.  Red neck locations will eat your lunch.  Ask me how I know.
    Payment is specified in the checkout section.  I will not accept Paypal, or 1 giant check.  See details.  Cash, multiple cashiers checks, etc.
    I would love to see this go to the right location, and if you're the right location, maybe we can "work" something out.  To see more go to AtlantisDreamMission.   To see a vid., go to ytube and type in this for the search v=k_6NwnmgpHY
    16 seats are inside.  There's a control room with the door in the back.  Two doors to exit.  One out of the back control room and another entrance door up front.  The very rear of the shuttle opens as well as two engines are connected to a door that swings out.
    The Gemini boiler plate capsule shown in 1 of the photos is not included .
    You will get titles to both vehicles.
