    FWC/ATC with a pass through?

    VW Pick-em up?

    Dave, Little car, long bed. In case you don't need all that cubic feet out back, the photo below shows what a GTI version would look like. This was a Revell 1/32 model kit I cut up about 20 years ago. Maybe by this July I can have all the unreliable bits replaced in my Chalet so I can take it...

    1976 K-5 Chevrolet Blazer Chalet. 68,000 original miles for sale on CL

    Call me an evil speculator, scroll down to Lot #312 in this auctions page for a '76 Chalet with what seems to be a mild lift kit (or maybe those tires make it look extra tall) but is otherwise stock: http://www.raleighclassic.com/new/results.php Considering what I saw at the recent...

    Dodge minivan camper

    Eugene, No doubt good advice, tho' maybe the next gen version after '96 improved. Or not. And the practical right side of my brain says there isn't likely to be many who are modding those Caravans / Voyagers. Meanwhile a random quick google search immediately turned up this site (pic below)...

    Dodge minivan camper

    Yep, I knew that, my parents owned a 2wd and now my brother in Johnstown PA has it - pic below. They are very nice, a bit pricey when they are in really good shape. Rather spongy ride, although that's probably due to the terrible tires it originally came with. I've seen various customized...

    Dodge minivan camper

    My daily driver / camping vehicle for the past 13 years has been a VW hatchback. Naturally, the one teensy little irritant about my Chalet is that it is so........ wide. I continually overestimate where the passenger side is. And there's acres of hood to look across, so much that I can't see the...

    new addition to the van!!

    I'm jealous. Opposite extreme here, 31 year old Raleigh 5 speed on a generic Thule partially held onto the car with clear packaging tape. Nevertheless, the objective is to get out of town to go camping & biking!
