This old, strange-looking bus that exudes teen spirit, thanks to its fancy butterfly-doors and customization within, has surfaced at an auction. The vehicle is a late 90s born Muack MSV 1120S, manufactured by the now-defunct custom vehicle manufacturer, Mauch Special Vehicles based out of Worthington, Ohio.
This Is A Cross-Breed
The MSV 1120S, which looks like an enlarged Toyota LiteAce, is a limited edition vehicle, if you may. What’s special about the MSV 1120S is that it is built from a number of components from at least five different automakers. It has the driving lights borrowed from a Dodge Viper, headlights from a Ford Aeromax, and the taillights of a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The car has butterfly-shaped wing doors and comprises of 21 panes of glass all around its body. The windshield is ripped off from a Toyota Previa, and 13 of the panes are laminated safety glass.
Low Mileage For A Car This Old
It also received 16-inch wheels a few years back. The powertrain is a General Motors-sourced 7.4-liter, V-8 engine. An automatic transmission sends power to the rear wheels via a Ford nine-inch differential. It has 49,000 miles on the odometer.
Where The Fun Lies
The seating is plush, and the whole area offers a lot of creature comforts, like a Vizio HDTV, a sound system, and lighting system with lasers and strobe lights. Confused why it has lasers inside? That’s because there is also stripper pole mounted in the middle of the compartment. This doesn’t look like a family vehicle whatsoever, but the previous owner has different things to say. He commented on the Bring A Trailer auction page, "We used it for few trips with family and friends, and we loved it, especially the kids."
Final Thoughts
It looks like the vehicle moved from kid-friendly to adult-friendly recently as the seats look quite new for such an old vehicle. The bid currently stands at $3,100.
