It's a Ford, who knows?

Have you all seen the latest from Coachman Industries? Believe it or not, they are bringing back the SHASTA!!!! And it's vintage lookin' too!

for more info, see my website at www.vintageshastas.com and click on the link on the homepage right under the frapprmap... There are pics of the new trailer both inside and out.

and a couple others from Craigslist in Atlanta

they keep showing up, it is so nice things do not rust to death in the southern states. I grew up in the north, and am very familiar with the cancer of metals caused by road salts.

Here is a 61 Zipper




Here's a 64 Scotty




and a 71 Scotty




A 73 GMC Motor Home - interior gutted - offered for $500 - scrapped - sold engine by itself for $500




A 74 Dodge Motor Home - 440 engine smokes - also offered at $500




They keep showing up, maybe someone else would like a vintage RV.

It's funny, I saw that same pic today both in color and B/W. Those pics were taken by Rich Truesdale who takes a lot of the pics for HotRod magazine and others like it.

He was kind enough to give me permission to use the ones he took of the RED/WHITE 57 chevy and 57 Shasta that is one of my "Featured Shastas" on my website.

He's a great guy, but a real stickler for getting his permission to repost his images. Which I can fully understand being a photographer and digital artist myself...

Here's the trailer we had when I was a little kid - a 16' Mercury that my Dad modded to fit two adults, three kids, and a cat. Here's a picture taken in our back yard in 1966 - I'm guessing that we were dressed for church and took a detour by the rig :



That's me on the step holding my head, which my wife says is my standard reaction whenever anything goes wrong with our current rig!
