Maiden Voyage of the Land Yacht

Post by HighDesertDodge »

Spent two nights at Highline State Park in the old motorhome. All the Grand kids loved thier new play house.

Well on my way to becoming that eccentric old man in every town.(crazy as a s#@thouse rat) With a yard full of desireable old vehicles that tells you, Sorry they're not for sale..... Someday I'm going to fix them.

I know it's wrong of me. But I just can't stop driving this thing or working on it.
My 4dr sits outside the garage with some paint on it to keep it from rusting. I haven't turned a wrench on it in months. Yet I will spend all my free time working on this new member of the family. I had the best time this weekend watching the three two year olds explore the cab of a 71 Sweptline. The munchkin door between the cab and the camper was just made for them.

That is one good looking rig. :clap

I can totally understand why you are enjoying working on it so much.
With a love for camping and the old Dodges, I would be having the same problem!
It sure has quite a bit of room inside from what I see in the photo.

Get out there and do some more camping and enjoy your hard work! :Thumbsup
