Our's is a 1977 GMC chassis "Diplomat" Class C built in Lethbridge Alberta, Canada. There's a picture of 'Tinker' in our signature.

There are the initilas "NZ" scibbled in a few places and the DW thinks they belong to the famous boat builder of yesteryear Noah Zark.

As they say, oldie but goodie and looks to have that one major poor mans luxury option called "Paid For". I see a lot of late '70s and early '80s units her in Vegas. Ours in 8 years old and hope to keep it a few years.

my 94 was a flat bed truck for a roofing company for a number of years. i bought it last year as a cab & chassis and installed the U-Haul box.
it did its maiden trip last month to Colorado and back (about 3500 miles)
I am thinking of putting -----------------"U-RV"---- on the sides of it.
