I noticed the cab doesn't have AC. Folks were tough back then.

Yes, I look back on those old pictures (well a little older than this) of people wearing long sleeve shirts with vests and pants during summer. Strange times.

Did anybody else notice the coppertone cooktop. That dates it. I like it.

I like it... A/C was not near as popular back then, hell, indoor plumbing was just starting to catch on down south.

This one seems to be Powered by Olds, but the Olds never had a hitch. I redone the camper for my daughter and a friend of mine said it would look great behind the Olds. Larry

My Mom didn't have indoor plumbing until she was in high school.
