Re: Anyone ever seen one of these?

The grill install is so good it almost looks factory, how would a guy tell if it was on a c30 chassis? BTW the grill is MINT!

Where did you see that? It would make a great camper for the craven jamboree! I know that a guy at the auto parts plus in regina owns one.

Re: Anyone ever seen one of these?

that probly started as a cowl truck, ive seen other motorhomes with just a cowl panel and front clip from a 67-72.

i had one of the more common full cab motorhomes and even those can get pretty cut up buy the conversion companies.

Re: Anyone ever seen one of these?

Id imagine they are using the c10 drivetrainand. Striping it down, and adding those panels. Kinda like the extended cab deals they did.
