Anchovy! What a great thread man! I have a small lantern collection and a low light I'm slowly restoring, so much inspiration here thanks for sharing everything!

This tent came with the my bus when I purchased it from the previous owner. It's a smaller drive away style tent but it's in nice shape. I don't see any labels or markings as to who manufactured it. Does anyone have an idea and does this tent help to identify the camper kit?

EDIT: Looks like this is the White Stag universal side tent that was used by ASI.

The top of the tent has a flap with a metal rod in it that rests in the drip rail and there are three snaps on the tent and bus to close off the bottom skirt.

This was in with the paperwork from the PO. Notice the slider door.

Supporting Ukraine is an added bonus…

It being from Boise, I'd say its a highly likely a Riviera, they were retrofitted out of Oregon (Burns?). I have a little pop like yours but I had a different cabinet setup, the holes in the floor behind the passenger seat look to be in the exact same spot as mine, I'm missing that cabinet.

Very cool, we have been using our Stag tent for some 10 years, same blue and yellow you have. We do not have a slider door bus...

Here is literature for a Sundial with same tent

Interesting on three different versions. Ours has the yellow front, do not remember seeing the tag, we just used it this weekend too. I will look for a tag one day and report back

When I went to my 1904cc motor it came with an A1 Sidewinder exhaust system. I like it but the exhaust tip was pointed down so whenever I was on dirt I was blasting dust everywhere. Recently I switched to General Grabber tires and the clearance was about an inch between the muffler and the inner sidewall. I decided to rotate the muffler away from the tire and reroute the exhaust tip out the back.

I tried to get in at A1 in Santa Ana but could never get scheduled in there so I went local at Warner's Muffler in Oceanside, CA. They did a great job and even added in an isolator. No more leaf blower and the tire has some space.

It's all about the accessories.

Restored this beat down westy stool with new vinyl. Blasted and powder coated the frame. New rubber feet as well. Also got the right color snaps. Overall not bad.
