A C20 actually would be a real investment, unlike the 26 foot Allegra motorhome that sat insured and unused for nearly 3 years in my front yard. It had F*%# 460 /C6 combo that drank a case a mile @ $4.65/gallon gas (back a few years). I think the perfect combo for me would be what you have, with the camper that could be removed and a dump bed set-up to run around in. Work and play in the same truck! I wonder if this has been done... they say nothing is new under the sun. Keep up the awesome work, then post picks of you and the family around a campfire with that beauty in the background. At the pace you are going it will be soon!
Thanks,

Did you see this one in MN? https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/d...588054660.html

The wife said "Get it Done" so this one moved to the front of the line. I am hoping (Hope is not an action word) to have this one running by the end of summer. Once I figure out the fuel system on this engine, the rest should be a wrap....About to start throwing mad $$$$$ at this one....
