    "Dusty field" Craigslist find Blazer Chalet #0580

    As opposed to a barn find. Just posted at California Inland Empire area, https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/5728202711.html by a relative of the owner who's been emailing me about it over the last day or two on how to get it to an appreciative home. Contrast-altered photo here since the one...

    1976 Blazer Chalet For sale in UT

    First saw this one listed in a late 2008 Boise Idaho Craigslist ad, and it was still popping up there for sale as late as April of last year. Never could get a serial number out of the seller - assumed to be a new owner/seller here who says it is serial #0142.

    1976 GMC JIMMY casa grande - camper

    Casa Grande #0855, built in 8/76. Being the guy who mostly keeps track of these, I don't have a good handle on what's happened with this one yet. It was for sale in Crosslake Wisconsin Craigslist ads for quite a while two years ago, and was bought by a guy who joined our Chalet/Casa Grande...

    Very rare only 1780 made 1977 Chevy blazer chalet camper - $4795 (Appleton

    Many thanks, it hasn't turned up yet in the couple of search links I regularly use to find these. It is one more to add to my mega-spreadsheet list. For sheer collector value, these drop like a rock when the camper is separated from the original factory vehicle. Minus the truck, this particular...

    Craigslist Find For The Ford Types...

    I don't doubt it's a Bronco-specific camper myself. Wes at this blog rounded up some ExPo links from years back on Broncos / 4Wheel, where Stan at 4WheelCampers had a couple of responses and photos: http://offroadaction.ca/2010/03/11/four-wheel-camper-responds-to-camperized-bronco-articles/...

    My former '77 Blazer Chalet on ebay

    Sent my rig packing back in 2010 due to the lack of money to continue restoring it, and it ended up languishing with a dealer/broker in Indianapolis for years. Another pair of guys bought it and the 12 others and have been selling 'em off one by one over the last half year. Don't know how I...

    Black Bear and Lockers

    If I may suggest it, for some folks, it may be significantly less aggravating and way more enjoyable to hire somebody else to do the driving. That's what I've done the last 13 summers with my Switzerland of America friends. Here's their page for their Black Bear tour, I've taken that all day...

    The GMC Jimmy Casa Grande 15 min of fame at TruckTrend magazine

    http://www.trucktrend.com/features/1508-1976-gmc-jimmy-casa-grande/ The writer of that article contacted me back in March about a few details, he apologizes about the word "pristine" in the online version, saying that is something an editor might have added in. He says the print version was out...

    1987 4x4 Toyota Sunrader

    So... this one was placed in the wrong forum and is not for sale after all. http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/144895-1987-4x4-Toyota-Sunrader

    4x4 Diesel Chinook

    Image for posterity. It will ultimately need some kind of clever fender flares.... From the ad text: 2003 Ford F-350 diesel with 185,000, which is nothing on a diesel. I wanted a 4x4 RV, but unfortunately I don't have the $120k to buy a new one, or the $85k to get a used one. So, I took a...

    Blazer Chalet - Colfax, CA - $2,800

    Chalet #1425, built in 10/76, owned by one of our long-time Chalet forum members. He is a real GM truck guy and did much to get it roadworthy from when he first got it, but he does acknowledge the rust issue.

    FS: 1977 Chevy Blazer "Chalet" Camper SOLD

    I think the new owner's Craigslist ad, with its $11,500 price, lasted less than a week, but now predictably he has it listed on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261847666289

    K5 Blazer Chalet

    Congrats! Forklift? with a pile of pallets under it to sit on as the trailer pulls forward? One of my pals at CK5.com did that sort of thing in this thread post. Another variation on the same theme is in the second pic below. Both were lifted trucks.

    K5 Blazer Chalet

    Can't really miss on that price, since that's what they tend to go for when they aren't in too bad of shape. If you carry it back on your Blazer, you'll need a set of temp taillights unless the seller has the camper taillights already rigged into a way to plug them into your system. If...

    K5 Blazer Chalet

    You mean the one for sale in Commerce City? Keep in mind that orphaned camper units have essentially no collector value, so while it may be admirable to keep such a unit original in case the original Blazer is found to pair them up again, I wouldn't recommend going to that effort. Last I heard...

    K5 Blazer Chalet

    Oh, yeah. Chalet #1747, built 1/77, owned past tense. It was one of the more pristine / quasi-restored ones out there, but I essentailly ran out of available funds and space to continue the restoration. The current broker (?) of it has it for sale along with twelve others that he had gathered...

    1991 Chevy Astro Provan Tiger GT 4X4 camper

    Appears to be the same rig I spotted two years back in a Colorado Craigslist ad, where another Expo member gleaned a few photos of it from the Tiger forum: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/86922-4x4-Chevy-Astro-Provan-Tiger-GT?p=1300681#post1300681
