If anyone could do it well, you'd have my vote.

Actually, the Ariel Ambulance WAS rescued by a fan group:
http://www.arielambulance.org/
who also have a yahoo page
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ArielAmbulance/
As of right now, the Ariel Ambulance is languishing in a parking lot out behind the Tomorrow's Aeronautical Museum
961 West Alondra Blvd.
Compton, CA 90220

Far as I know, while the AA is relatively safe for now, interest and money has kind of dried up.
There was an attempt awhile back to organize a restoration work day,
and no one was able to participate.
SOOOO, it isn't always the BEST scenario for the fans to get a hold of a LARGE Hollywood prop vehicle because of the expense and difficulty of restoring and storing such LARGE artifacts.
Also, rather than pining over the relics we don't have,
I'm suggesting folks get involved in saving and restoring a prop that IS in the hands of Browncoat fans.
Even $10 or $20 is still a little help towards preserving the AA.

Yeah, it's wonderful that Serenity & Nostromo didn't end up the way of Station 5 from 2001...

...or Valley Forge from Silent Running. (Doug Trumbull kept it in his garage and eventually had to take a chainsaw to it!)

Nice story, Universal has probably other treasures in their archive.

Very shiny that is still out there and QMX was able to get footage of it. Guess we can expect to see a QMX model of the Reaverized Serenity down the road.

Y'know, this would make an awesome Warehouse 13 crossover.
So what would the Reaverized Serenity model do to people?
