That is exactly what John Steinbeck described doing in his book Travels With Charley.

Before that bike was relegated to racing, it was a street legal bike. Here it's on it's way to a track day behind the nice daily driver, the '05 STi.

My girlfriend races at the Pikes Peak Hillclimb. The first two years on a bike, and since then it's been cars. When she raced the bike, it was easy. No big tow rigs and a much smaller crew. Here's the rig we took up the second year. The car was an $800 Forester with dents on every corner from...

Brings to mind the rear cabinet in a VW Westfalia.

Use magnets to hold the screen to iron on the frame.

I've heard conflicting stories about allowances and special permits. http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/87291-Right-hand-drive-vehicle-not-allowed-into-El-Salvador-apparently!? http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/75493-El-Salvador-vehicle-importing-RHD-vehicles?

When are we going to see a running Model-A coupe in that garage?:sombrero:

Looks like this is it. http://ventura.craigslist.org/rvs/4213218312.html

Any chance that a mid or mini truck sized camper would fit rail-to-rail on a full sized?

Larry, I've got an old copy of Road Fever by Tim Cahill, the Outside Magazine writer that accompanied him on the trip in a GMC truck the length of the Americas. It's an interesting read, particularly the sections on reconnaissance and preparation - which is the majority of the book. Tim relates...

A friend is selling his VentureCraft trailer. It's listed on Craigslist in Dallas, Texas. http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/for/4199931658.html

In the video he claims to be the first car through the Panama Canal. Helen & Frank Schreider claimed they piloted their amphibious Jeep through the Canal in their books, La Tortuga and 20,000 Miles South, both published in 1957.

Before the likes of YETI and Icey-Tek, the only way to get a "great" cooler was to buy a custom made cooler from the guys that hand made them for sportfishermen. You'd see half a dozen of them at the boat and fishing shows. Now I can't find any of them.

Do the E range make the unloaded ride stiffer? Yes, but not unbearable. If you adjust the air pressure it reduces the harshness. How does the tread wear compare to your older lighter load range tyres? Went from Goodyear Silent Armor Load D to Load E in the same 265/75-16 size and tire life went...

While I agree with Mike, I think the rules we all know and play by are focused on cars and light trucks. Medium duty trucks MAY have a different set of requirements for importation.

Larry's Polarbear made the list twice!

Joaquin Suave makes these. http://www.overlandhardware.com/protect.html

On my '76 K25 longbed and '77 C10 shortbed the stake pockets have a 1" hole at the bottom. I'm thinking about adding long bolts or all-thread going from the below the stake pocket through a hole in the lip of the camper top. This would be in addition to the clamps. FWIW, I haven't had as many...

I agree that from a pure financial point it's usually not worth it. BUT, if you need extended range and don't want to carry additional gas cans (or you are already carrying cans and can't carry even more) then it could be worth it. Or, if you want an engine that can go hundreds of thousands of...

Yeah, that's the only reason I haven't bought one. Despite three sizes, they all have the same large footprint.
