Use a nail to start her, I lost the key, don't pay no of that she's mind to whirring sound, she uses a lil bit of oil, outside of that ....she's cherry!

Sometimes you have to pass on your dream project. I was looking for a Scotty camper to go along with my slick. I found one that needed a complete new wood structure, the glass was shot, it had holes all over it and it was at best only good for about 50 bucks of parts. The guy wouldn't let it go for less than 600 bucks. I was willing to give 200-400 but not that much. I setteled for my Aristocrat . Then last August one of the guys on a Tennesse camping group I belong to said he had one he would give me if I promised to fix it. It was exactly what I wanted. I did have to rebuild the wood frame but I wanted to so I could redisign it with insulation. So for about 30 bucks of gas I got what I wanted at a later date .So keep looking and you will probably find what you want for less. You can see my camper at the link below, the first picture are when I got it and the later pages are of what I have got done now.

I bought a not much one better looking 63 uni short bed down near Philidelphia.. It was blue when i picked it up.. Well sort of blue and rust and green weird lookin' mold... and when i got home with it about a hundred miles later it was red! All the blue latex house paint had blown off on the highway.....

Fanatic went with me on that trip..

That truck was almost the absolute worst i have ever snagged. Paid a whopping $42.50 for it on EBay. cost more in diesel fuel for the roll back than the truck....Sold about 400 bucks in parts off of it...then cut it up and got 90 for the carcass at the scrap yard....
