I thought something else.  My B-I-Law was a 25+ year union guy and took his 4 weeks of vacation in January.  Then during the year when stuff came up he had to call in.   Then they let him go for attendance issues.

I did similar when I was an Airman in Korea. I took my 30 days of leave and partied it away staying in Korea. Amazing only thing bad that happened was I broke my wrist running from the SPs. But I did get away.

Uh, I didn't think old camper shells are worth ANY money. They come up for free quite often. Guess I was wrong?

I love that the pictures of the boat in action look to be 30 years old.

Maybe you can get parts for the truck at least. That outboard motor, no shot.

The boat steers from the wrong side. Anyone know why?

Yup, nothing like "camping" in the right emergency lane after your vintage truck died and/or your vintage trailer shucked a tire/wheel assembly.

Honestly, with about $30k invested in refreshing it all, you could have a pretty reliable way to have a miserable time driving to the lake and popping in a portable bucket with a door and sleeping on a piece of foam.

I like that entire setup.  Pretty cool.

Not 100% sure why but I had a 1963 Glaspar Avalon that also steered from the wrong side. They came in both left and right hand drive configurations. Wish I hadn't gotten rid of it.

T.J. - -I know.

Classic - I understand right side drive is when there is a throttle, left side drive is when there is a gas pedal.
