A very eye-catching combination...I'm sure you got lots of second looks.

Gorgeous! Years ago I had a red1970 CST-10 which wouldn't handle my current 2012 27FB Flying Cloud but in its day, it probably would have been awesome for a trailer like yours. That truck is just gorgeous!!

Camping over the weekend

To all that commented, Thank you for the compliments, my wife and I are really enjoying the whole vintage thing, we both camped in the 60s and 70s. Our kids keep telling us we are stuck in the 60s and 70s (we are ok with that). To Dames7 we are enjoying to much to sell it. Dwayne and Jackie

Nice! I love it. 72 was the last year of that body style. I (had) a 1971, wish I had it now.

What everyone above said, I concur. It's a lovely set up.

I do take issue with the term "Camping".
To me, (a Former Backpacker), "Camping" is putting your 'house' on your back and walking ten miles into the bush, and setting up your tent, and enjoying Nature at it's finest.

RV "Camping"? We are just taking our wheeled cottages out to a different location to 'holiday' away from home.

Beautiful set up. My spouse and I had determined that the cream and light green colour scheme is how we are going to paint our Argosy. I'm glad it looks good with a blue truck - ours is a '92 Ford. We will post pics when done. Again awesome Argosy!
