For comparison's sake, my former tin box econo-hatchback weighed 3 times as much. Thank heavens it was well designed enough not to fold in half when I was T-boned by an early '70s Caprice doing at least 35 mph. More power to those who can get a car to run on free electricity, but they are going...

Yep, typo on my part from seeing a couple of his other ads in Memphis ones http://claz.org/classifieds.html?q=Blazer+Chalet and assuming Blue Ridge was also in Tennessee.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300687905488 And at the moment, it can also be found at a Blue Ridge TN Craigslist ad, if that is any benefit: http://chattanooga.craigslist.org/rvs/2895503917.html This one is serial #1304, built in 10/76. The rust on such old GM...

You mean the one in this other thread? http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=297501 Serial #0251, it shows up in the Fredericksburg Craigslist ads periodically.

Perhaps, or not since price is a bit subjective when ones like this are altered from original condition (repaint, other add-ons like the awning). I thought our Yahoo Chalet forum member had it underpriced at $3400 when he sold it, but I thought it was a bit annoying that this dealer/consignment...

Your photo may be a bit harsh on contrast.... but those side windows look opaque to me. Unimpaired vision under low light or night conditions is important. I borrowed a 'customized' car once that had the rear window tinted so dark that all I could make out at night was just the headlights and...

Speaking of the more 'striking' color schemes, I could probably handle the blue or brown-ish ripped diagonal variations, but a red & white version is..... umm..... (via a Minneapolis Craigslist ad http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/rvs/2730522086.html )

Sorry to be a stickler for details, but in your post #22 you offered us your assurance that the petition statement about the 'shockingly disproportionate' DHS spending was true, but now you say you have no idea what the Customs branch spends. If the petition is about inane regulation, then that...

Please accept my assurance that as a fan of the Canada / European-only VW Golf Country 4x4, I'd love to legally import one. Problem here is the words "shockingly disproportionate", implying DHS sacrifices safety of the citizenry of the US over pointless enforcement of importation rules. If this...

Just curious. How do we know that statement is true?

The fourth eBay listing for this one is about to end in a couple of hours: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300618173288 Somebody asked what the reserve was five days ago and the seller told what it is then, but only last night according to the bid history, a...

Sold mine last August, posted in this thread. My google map of the Chalets for sale has the orphaned units designated as "shells-only" if that helps to skip the problem of having to deal with an extra truck. Better to keep a good quality Chalet together for its collector value. Also worthwhile...

Speaking on behalf of ol' Doug, there are these ones for comparison in Denver Craigslist ads: http://denver.craigslist.org/rvs/2595373798.html http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/2591173403.html Probably in both cases the sellers want to sell the whole vehicle & camper, so you might do well...

From the prior listing several weeks ago, the seller said he'd check the serial number for me, I have it as #0056 with an unknown build date, but the prior owner wasn't all that talkative, so I could use a confirmation of the number and a hard look for the build date if it is lightly stamped...

Relisted: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300604908157 Zero bidders last time, one this time, but my educated guess is that the reserve is around $15 grand.

They are, but the rough economic times causes more of the owners to be selling them lately (sold mine last August). I used to be able to count the number of ones for sale on two hands, but I had to make a Google map for myself to keep track of the 45+ that seem to be out there for sale. I do...

Aargh. Including this current dealer/seller, this one has gone through 5 owners since July of last year, the first dealer/seller being the one who found it at an estate sale (if I remember that detail right) and also the one who misread the serial number plate to say #1382. Now you can see in...

Very cool. However, a challenge for you app creators / doohickey creators: I'll drive off that bridge when I get to it, but after I actually get an iphone, I will need an app and adapter for my late '70s era bayonet mount Minolta lenses. They and my trusty old X-700 sit neglected in one of my...

One of the newer guys at our Yahoo Groups Chalet owners forum recently bought this, but is about to sell it just as quick. I should ask him what he thinks of the handling, as I thought my former Chalet's stock height still made it feel a tad ungainly. I'd think lighter weight / lower mass...

My old iMac can't handle YouTube videos worth beans any more, but thought I'd post this one I just ran across, a slideshow video of how an old Chinook is plopped onto a newer 4x4 Toyota. Link here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPkC5G55MbA and screencapture below from around the midpoint of...
