OK,

Here's the story. I traded for a 71 GMC "Longhorn" Custom Camper, which has been my dream truck since I was a kid. My dad had a 70 GMC Custom Camper with an El Dorado Camper on it from the factory. I started a thread asking for pictures of peoples trucks with campers, specifically El Dorado Campers, and Longhorn trucks with campers on them.

Special-K sent me a PM saying he'd like my address to send me an old El Dorado pamphlet, complete with price list from 1971!! It has a picture of a 71 chevy on the cover with a huge slide-in on it. I went camping this weekend with my "NEW" 73 Chevy/Mitchell Motorhome Camper Special and when I got back last night, my package from Special-K was here. This is really cool and will soon be framed in my living room.

Here's a link to the thread in the 73-87 forums with pics of the motorhome I stole this winter.

Thank you again Tim, you sent this out to me barely knowing me and that sort of coolness is rare these days.
