$175 for the building but they recquired me to get Liability insurance which was another $75 so $250 a month total !

Cheapest I have found in Winfield, Ks has been 700.00 plus the taxes and insurance off an additional 275.00... that isn't going to happen... takes too much away from the truck...I told the guy if I wanted to buy a building I would make a offer on one...

Here is tear down day 1, for the first time I have my own shop space where my family and friends can come hang out and help with the build ! My son helped for about 7 hours yesterday, he is learning how to disassemble , pretty PRICELESS in my book ! My wife of course goofed off and took pictures ! LOL

It's awesome to see the family working on Bertha with you. Love the idea for the wall couch! I only hope you're serious. Even if you don't do the couch, make it a fold out workbench. :metal:

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
 
Don't forget to get the header of the bed for the couch.

The interior will be WILD

Under the hood will be a new product for Slosh Tubz

Completely built 6.0 with Turbo
