I've got a 76-f-100 that was manifactured for "Recreational Vans Inc., of Torrance California, it has a special paint job, with crome exhaust smoke stacks by the cab and a few other customed parts on it, has anybody ever heard of Recreational Vans inc. is it a special truck or just special to me
Apparently this particular company did conversons on pickups, too...though I'm sure the customary wood paneling of the era would be devoid of use in an F100...except maybe the headliner. :P

Don't forget the door panels and dash...
I'm curious to see if the truck has the same bicentennial paint job the van in the picture does...

That's a bit over the top...way too much stuff going on. Still, it's always cool to find rarely seen things like that. What would be neat is a Bicentennial F100 with blue and stars on the hood and roof and red and white stripes in the bed. Whenever you go under an overpass, people would salute!
Hopefully he comes back soon with some pictures of this truck he's so fond of...

RVI also put together the famous ballon chaser Broncos for Stroppe...I think James Duff has one. So the company did do some other truck stuff. Very cool about your F100!

Ford actually offered a factory Bicentennial Edition pickup in '76. They are very rare to find today.
