Saw this on Santa Fe today.

That one is often parked in front of a commercial/light industrial building on Natches - near the intersection of Santa Fe & Oxford. Just down from John’s Steer & Stop Shop if you know that place.

Saw a cool old Hilux camper down the street from me. I think it's for sale, wonder how much they want for it...

Not yet. I spent 10 summers working in Aspen previously. Trying to find a job to move back up to Carbondale or Glenwood. Winters in Summit are too harsh for Amber and the county has just gone insane on top of that. Getting out before the ship sinks.

My parents have a place in Basalt so we are up for the holiday weekend.

I don’t dislike American Iron, but I would choose the 60 every time.

A hotrod Chevy Thriftmaster is awful dang cool though.

I agree. I just don’t know what I would do with it…besides play ZZ Top really loud.

Totally agreed.

I don't know if Chevy/GMC ever made a 4x4 version (or an aftermarket upfitter) of the late 40s, early 50s 3100 but there's custom ones.



The 1955+ ones are more common. Now this I would definitely run.

I believe they are or were built by a RS club member who started the tour company, if I'm not mistaken.
