I agree, that Chevy ranks among my favorites. Unfortunately, not many companies making anything like that now. If you want a wooden drink holder you can get that but just try finding a 12volt disco ball!

My grandfather's 1977 Dodge shorty Sportsman. This was taken in May 1979 at Tuckahoe Acres campground in MD. We had just finished unhitching his trailer. I have very fond memories of that van!

Last I heard the top was rusted out but the steel flares still good. Also heard if he gets the inheritance he's suppose to be getting, it's gonna be restored to original beauty.

I remember old Nautilus and several other angle choped Dodges that used to come to Van Slam at National Trail Raceway, years ago. Nautilus looks even better now though.

Here's a picture of Metal Storm & Showtime together. I think this must be a late 80's 'Last Chance' in Ohio.
