I love them too Cyndi....<br> Here is my old one....<br>The van and I on the left....<br>Pic on the right is a camp in Eugene with a girlfriends (Jan) big Blue step van and a friend's Bus...(Tom and kids, Jasper and Sephra) Jasper sitting on the back bumper of Big Blue..<br><br>Bri<br>
 
There was one on Ebay not long ago, but not nearly as nice condition.&nbsp; For alot more as I recall.&nbsp; <br><br>I love old rigs, and for the most part I think they hold up better and are more reliable.<br><br>
 
It looks like a little delivery truck! So cute. I wonder how long ago the inside was converted.<br><br>Meg<br><br>
 
I just realized my photos did not come through...<br>Wow, I am getting fed up with the hassles of trying to have a conversation on this site...More than half the time I still can't get it to accept my cursor in the reply boxes...STILL! Argh! I am ready to give it up!Anyway...here they are...I will hope for the best...<br>Bri<br><br>
 
<FONT size=3>Karl, does anything live on the east coast that long?&nbsp; when I was back in mass, last summer, I brought my truck in for an oil change etc.&nbsp; Those guys were all amazed at how clean it was for a 2002.</FONT><BR><FONT size=3></FONT>&nbsp;<BR><FONT size=3>Khaosinc, I think it must be rougher than it appears to be priced so reasonably.&nbsp; Like maybe there's no engine?</FONT><BR><FONT size=3></FONT>&nbsp;<BR><FONT size=3>Bri! Those are beautiful!&nbsp; Those were the days, huh?</FONT><BR><FONT size=3></FONT>&nbsp;<BR><FONT size=3>You can <EM><B>NOT</B></EM> give up on this site (and that's an order, young man!). We are worth the hassle of posting! Ha! did you see how many pictures were in the original post!&nbsp; they didn't show up until long after I had posted .... so weird!</FONT><BR><FONT size=3></FONT>&nbsp;<BR><FONT size=3>We need to recruit some techy person to do some fixes (out of the kindness of their heart, of course)... Blars? Johnny? Jen? Are you listening???</FONT><BR>
 
The add says&nbsp; it runs so I assume there is a motor.&nbsp; They are a nightmare to tune however and parts will be a pain to find&nbsp; (ever worked on an updraft carb?).&nbsp; It might be hard to find a mechanic under 60 that knows anything about them either.<br><br>
