How's the plumbing work? What do you think it will need to be "livable" or at least "campable"?
Do I get a "second car" discount?

i thought so also. althou its not a big block it will save me money...

**special-K** · 06-09-2007, 10:12 PM

I could drive it out.All I`d take in pay would be the camper

.

**yote1234** · 06-09-2007, 10:29 PM

thanx for the offer special k.. but,now im starting to think about puting the big block and trans and installing into the "done" truck???? hmmm.? that might be cool.. make you a deal. do the engine/trans swap and i will give you the camper truck.. ?????????????

**hotrodmtodd** · 06-09-2007, 11:55 PM

Well guys, I can tell you one thing, if K doesn't take THAT deal I WILL, because I am the PO on this truck, and I can tell you that the SBC in the dually is STRONG. I will be HAPPY to drive it to you, do the swap and take the camper home with me. If you are serious, please PM me and we can discuss it further. Thanks, Mike

**special-K** · 06-10-2007, 08:00 AM

Let me think about this.Todd,I forgot it was you that had it.This would be a truck nut`s dream vacation.Drive crosscountry in a sweet 1ton(I`ll probably get laid a dozen times on the way out in that sexy thing).Do some wrenchin`out in good ol`AZ(it`s been since`94 that I`ve been).I could see friends up in Sedona/Flag area.Visit 70RS/SS.Cruise a camper back home(rather stay out there).Sell my house and live in my barter box(my 15 year old son would love that.Not really,unless I wasn`t there).
My sister got married yesterday in Santa Fe.I wish I could have combined the trip.But,I could visit them.Hmmmm.....

Seriously,I would like to consider that.But,either way,it will be a tough transport to haul.Maybe not.I don`t know if it`s considered oversized.I would consider driving it out to you and you fly me back.Check into what you`re dealing with and let me know.I like truck adventures.I`d be flying to DC or Baltimore,it makes no diff to me.What ever`s cheaper.

LUV2XCLR8 · 06-10-2007, 10:19 AM

Nice camper, would Luv to have it, just can't right now. As for the dually
I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo jelous of u

**yote1234** · 06-10-2007, 02:52 PM

2nd thought....maby i'll wait untill the flatbed gets here to make a decision. sounds like a strong small block is what i need. will think about it....

Longhorn Man · 06-10-2007, 04:08 PM

i gotta say it... that is some SHAGadellic carpetting!
That would be a sweet rig to go to a board meet in!
And 11 MPG is outstanding for that sucker... was he keeping it at 50MPH or something?

**yote1234** · 06-10-2007, 04:21 PM

hey now! i remember when shag carpet was "cool". remember the shag rake?

**special-K** · 06-10-2007, 05:25 PM

I was going to comment on how that shag matches up pretty good.Hey Mike,where did you buy the chrome Budds?I`m looking for a set for my wrecker.

CrashEd · 06-11-2007, 12:31 AM

70rs/ss · 06-11-2007, 12:46 PM

Well, whoever ends up this way, stop by and I'll give you the nickle tour!! Yote, I love the motorhome and the price is excellent. I passed on one that was in bad shape cause I was scared what I might find, but yours looks to be in excellent shape. I might be able to twist the wife's arm and get her to let me have it? I love BBC and cold AC with sleeping quarters seems like a dream?
