Goose1957 Posted May 29, 2024 Posted May 29, 2024 Not a conversion, but an interesting "camper" none the less. Went to my local hardware store a couple of years ago and this rig was parked at the end of the parking lot. Too cool, I had to snap a couple of pics. I didn't see the owner of this fresh barn find so I couldn't gather anymore info about it. Could be a cool model project someday. Jeff 1
