Yea, a new camper!

Pictures please. I know nothing about that camper, and wondering what it looks like. It is so exciting to get something new to take out camping. Enjoy getting her ready for springtime.

How very exciting! That is very funny how you found it, I'll bet you were very suprised to see it sitting there. Finding these things is like an Easter egg hunt sometimes!

Congratulations, Dan!!!

That is so cool.

Ellen Buzzard's dad, Bob Webb, owns a 1973 Amerigo. (Bob is not on the Internet.) Maybe Ellen will send you pictures of how he has done it completely over inside. I saw it last year at the Oregon Gathering and it was beautiful! Hey, Ellen... you want to weigh in here?

Congrads Dan on your Amerigo find... Hope you enjoy yours as much as my dad likes his. Yours looks in much better shape than my dads when he got it. Will try to get some pics posted. Still not sure how to do it but will work on it in the next week or so.

Dan congrats on your new "egg". You and the wife need to come on down to Indiana this Spring (Spring Mill State Park). There will be several different makes of fiberglass eggs there, so come join us.
