Well, I wondered how long my Brother would keep my 86 "Weekender" while he also has an early 90’s EuroVan "Weekender".

It has been years now.......

Turns out his Daughter is taking it off his hands after all.

So you Tacoma Washington folk...... if you see a new Savanah Beige Metallic camper in town..... say HI to my Niece! (Possibly the kindest, most gentle, caring and giving human to walk the planet today)

They know that any warranty expressed or implied has truly expired!

But I am available for virtual repair sessions.

After sitting for so many years lightly used...... I do have concerns.
Except for a broken Alternator wire and rusted gas pedal rivets...... it has performed flawlessly.

Proximity to Small Car might be good or bad, depending.
