Google Sketchup Tatra ExPo Camper

Back in '96, I could have bought T813's, running condition, with light problems, for $500 each. I had a couple of T805's at one time, but after the move back they stayed there...still have some manuals for them. Somewhere.

See? That there is the reason I'm shopping for a plot of land. No way I could keep a Tatra and a couple spares on an urban lot in Ocean Beach! After getting sidetracked with marriage and real estate, I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to get an M35 to build into a camper. (Not that I'm complaining, mind you!)

Watching you from a ridge. In Alaska. I'm cold.

Ah, my friend, that is the beauty of the Tatra platform. Multiwheeled, all wheel drive, heavy, and large. Where you park it, is where you keep it. Front yard. Neighbours front yard. On top of other cars. Anywhere you want.

Better yet, import one of the MAZ Topol-M TEL's. That'll piss the neighbours off. Make sure you drive it down Niagara and do a couple of u-turns, I think the ex still lives there.

I'm calling shotgun on it though, just to get in before everyone else does.

Best thing about it? You can mount all of Casa Azul on top! It'll fit, and the load rating isn't an issue.

How's your other build going? Did you get a handle on the engine controller module?

I think there's been a little confusion between me and the other Joaquin. I'm the lower one, he's the smooth one. Not funny?

But whatever, either of you is welcome to let me know when you're coming through this way. We can always find beer.

O M F G !

MAZ Trucks

That is not kidding around. Like really. That totally belongs in the thread I started a few years ago about trucks I'd love to have that would make crappy expedition campers (including double-decker, flexible busses). Do want.
