Willie Nelson fans hoping to emulate the perpetually itinerant country singer can now buy a tour bus belonging to the singer's crew.
Rolling Stone has confirmed the vehicle's authenticity, with a spokesperson for the singer confirming that the bus belonged to Nelson's longtime drummer Paul English
.
The owner, Tom O'Leary, purchased the bus on eBay in 2010 "on a whim," he tells Rolling Stone. "I'm not especially a Willie Nelson fan," O'Leary says. "I mainly just thought it looked cool. It needed quite a bit of work when I got it and I did it all myself: fuel systems, electrical, floors, plumbing."
O'Leary says he only uses it twice a year, "mainly for NASCAR races and hunting trips" and that "it's just time for someone else to enjoy it for what it is."
