FSJ Camper
While working I drove by this, stopped threw it in reverse, and took a good look, and couldnt believe what I was looking at, Looks like 60s Gladiator Dually Camper. It doesnt look too bad, I have to go back to that area soon, so I might stop by and see if theyd want to get rid of it, or at least get better pictures, anyone in the Houston area know anything about it?

They are six lug Bill. If anyone can get some good pics of this....  including the VIN tag... it would be great to record. I have only documented two survivors (dually) and one SRW chassis mounted camper... heard of a couple others... one was crushed as a mistake over a code violation/impound situation...

Can you get some pics of that one for the Dually Registry Ryan?
What kind of shape is that one in?

Ah Jason in the Mountains posted pics of if last fall, I think it was a custom jobby on a 1st gen waggy frame. Its up in Salida (far from me)
I never knew there was a Chassis version of the camper, very cool.
Woo man, I could never imagine ballin the jack on one of these on Wolf Creek... probably not many of them in CO for a reason
