I like it. I wonder if Number Dummy has a part number for the camper?

Obsolete. "No parts dealer has any" Wouldn't it be cool if Green Sales has one though?

A guy gave me an Epi-pen. He was dying and it seemed very important to him that I have it.

Cool find! Can't say I can remember ever having seen one of those campers. It is just perfect combined with the 140" wheelbase! I wonder if there's a pass-through to the cab in conjunction with a slider rear window/backglass.

How is it possible the owner is not a member here? Just one search of internet for a truck or camper part would have ended up here.

Actually, I believe it is. From ready the site, he did a mod of installing a porch light on the back behind the ladder. Looks like that is the case here. Cool read and has some classifieds for the campers. My wife said she might consider it after the boy moves out.

Very cool, didn't know Ford made a truck camper. I wonder how many were made. My Papa had a truck camper on his 64 F100. My dad said it was a little heavy for that truck. I will have to check out the site.
