I saw this one last week at USA Luxury Coach in Clearwater, Florida.  Given my experiences there, I would HIGHLY recommend getting the coach OUT of there ASAP.
Boy, that is one sick paint scheme.
Looks like the owner is a Green Bay Packers fan! Go Pack!!
What an awesome tailgate rig!!
That looks like it could be Indy 500 winner, Tony Kanaan’s.
And Blue Merle is the winner. 2001, Tony Kanaan's coach. Last time I saw that one listed was 2014. Not a good sign when a Newell is up on ramps.
Ramps look pretty good , I should make something similar. Probably paint , not wrap ?

When it was listed in 2014, there were markings for ApexBrasil on the sides that are no longer there. I suspect those were decals. The TK logo on the front and sides are the same as in 2014. The chips in the front look like they could be paint chips but it is very hard to tell.
I’m pretty sure this has been in rental service for a number of years.  I last saw it at the Rolex24 at Daytona around 2012.  TK had sold it by then and was about to purchase 785 from Dario Franchitti.
Since then it has appeared at different INDYCAR venues, however it has been several years since I’ve seen it.

I would think it has been used pretty hard in the last few years.

My memory recalls it being set up for 50HZ 220V but that part is a little fuzzy.
