After building a C6 on her dining room table and using her dish washer to clean parts, I don't think it would be to big of a deal..........lol


Tomorrow we start moving stuff from my shop to the sale building!

 

Cuts down on transit time, maximizes efficiency, you can use her bathtub for a chip bin.

 

Now what every would make you think those would be important?

 

No bath tub.........When we remodeled the house we got rid of the bath tub. We now have just a large walk in shower.......

 

That's a GOOD camper!!! it maintained structural integrity after a catastrophic failure.........what make is it?!!

 

We got the opposite, a big ol' heated/jetted tub.
A lot cheaper to use than a regular hot tub.

 

Our shower is for washing the crud off. The hot tub is for relaxing........

 

Maybe a Caveman???????????

Back door missing, metal skin wrinkled / collapsed. I'll bet the flimsy wood under that metal looks like splinters. Might be good for a weenie and marshmallow roast!

 

For those that don't know what a Sunnen hone will do.....

 

Might be a caveman........or a six-pac or a Conestoga.......one of those good ol' dry-rot specials from the late 60s/early 70s.

I remember as a little kid going to look at "new" campers on the RV lots with the old man, just about as much fun as x-mas!
Gotta jump in the cab-overs or hide in the bathrooms!

 

Our "RV" when I was growing up was the back of the horse truck. Tarp over the side and head boards, tarp on the floor boards, special hole cut for a small heat stove pipe, Coleman cook stove, air mattress and sleeping bag. Just had to shovel the horse s&^* out first.


Good old down home country aroma. Didn't need any of those Christmas tree fresheners.


When dad and I rebuilt my sister's camper, I saw just how flimsy they were made and I got worried.


When the jacks collapsed out from underneath my King of the Road and we tore into it to rebuild that mess.............well, I salvaged some stuff out of it, we took it to the burn pile, tied a chain to it and the tractor. Dad drove one way and I drove the other. Then we set it on fire. It burned so fast and wicked.........that was 1995.


It was just last year that I let my wife talk me into another one. I've got smoke detectors and the escape hatch on the cab over is always set for a quick exit.

 

Dad never kept anything (trucks, boats, RVs) very long, always had to have new........I am the exact opposite, I keep stuff forever.

We never got to see how those older campers deteriorated........but we always had fun with the new stuff!

 

Evening gents, any of yall have a couple 55 gallon drums or a 60 or 80 gallon air compressor tank you are willing to part ways with? Or know someone who is?

 

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

 

Morning Tiny!
