Unhappy Re: 1972 chevy motor home...not mine

You don't see the 1 ton flat face cowl models very often.

I don't care for either of those conversions, though..

Re: 1972 chevy motor home...not mine

The one we had when I was a kid was a 68 GMC full cab. I think this is the first time I have seen one of these. Yeah kinda ugly.

Re: 1972 chevy motor home...not mine

That thing is AWESOME!!! I wish I could buy it!I like anything that has any resemblance to a 67-72 truck.Definately different,which doesn`t scare me a bit.I`d rather drive that than a $250,000 RV.Definately more classy,IMO.If I wanted pretty I`d buy a Vette and sleep in a bed & breakfast.

This was ordered "heater delete" since the body needs it`s own heat source.Like a school bus.

Not a camper,but another cowl`n`chassis truck:
