It is worth $13,500 just to park in front of your house and get the zealous HOA overlords worked up.

Frank, to be honest I don't know a thing about HOA's, I've only heard stories.

One of the folks I worked with had a home in an upscale NW Portland neighborhood. They couldn’t even plant tulips and daffodils without having the bulb quality approved by the HOA.
Paraphrasing Groucho, any neighborhood that had a resident like me, I wouldn’t want to live in anyway...

That rig reminded me of my first camper on my 350 powered '51 Chevy pickup. The camper was custom built by Ponderosa campers in Sacramento to fit the truck. These pics were taken in 1979, in Bandon OR. The little blond kid is my son and the guy cooking was my neighbor Skip. Ham radio antennas on the truck even back then.

Bob, you had a very nice truck. In times gone by, I had a beat up ‘52 Chevy and a straight ‘54 Jimmy. The whine of the gearbox still echos in my memory.

Only had the stock engine and transmission in it for about two weeks so don't remember a whiny transmission. Replaced both with a built up Chevy 350 and a Turbo-400 automatic, Oldsmobile rear end and Ford power steering.
I remember almost having a heart attack when I was quoted $1800.00 to build the camper! Wish we had those prices today...
Actually, wish I still had the truck..

Okay- it's nostalgia time. Boon docking somewhere northeast of Death Valley early 1986. I sold the 1965 Panel a few years ago because I also had a '66 4x4 Panel. My kids used to hide in the back and asked me to drop them off a block before school. All of their friends affectionately called it " Hoopty". I used to wonder what they called me?!
