SCAMP ON A STICK pictures??

I know there is a show us your rig thread, but how many “Scamp on a stick” pictures can we find? Yes I know, the hitch was low, the f150 had more "sag" than I planned for.

Web find. The only thing left after the big fire at the Scamp manufacturing plant in 2006.

We stopped at the Scamp hatchery last year on our way back from a rally in Oregon and the Boler 50th rally in Winnipeg. Got a picture of our Scamp then, plus the Ranger they used to deliver the 19' Scamps.

I can add another one. Friends towing a 16 with a Toyota Sienna van stopped by to have a bathroom window replaced.

For what it's worth, this site says the septic tank story is a myth:

And a very interesting page on Boler's European Heritage:

PRINT THE LEGEND!
The Canadian Intellectual Property Office lists three patents in Olecko’s name; the inventions are also patented in the U.S.A.
