Peter, I left Berkeley in 1976 and attended High School in Carmel.
I don't tow an Airstream with a DS but this is what the two look like together:

That is awesome! I saw a picture of a tow hitch for a DS, I think it was the entire length of the car, like an additional ladder frame.
Funny, we used to take my beater VWs to Big Sur to camp in '79 and '80, just before graduation. We'd hang out with friends whose parents had a cottage in Carmel. I love that area. We just went to Asilomar in June for an overnight on the way to LA. The beaches around Monterey and Carmel are kind of dreamy.
You don't happen to know of anyone with a '70-71 Peugeot 304, do you?
take care
Peter

Peter, thats a tall order! Very few 304 Peugeots ventured to the states. I'll put a word out for you. I'm looking for a 404. I have to agree about our local beaches, my office is right arcoss the street from one.

No, I don't know anyone with a 304 either. A teacher at my elementary school had one, in 1972, but I'm surprised that I haven't seen ANY, even in Berkeley, since then. I saw a neat 404 on ebay a while ago. I'd love to have an R16, among other things. I've always loved the French cars, especially after hitchhiking back and forth across France in the early 80s.
Dennis Ice is the local guy with the Citroens and Panhards. Do you know him?
take care
Peter

Jeff, Peter; Just wine for you two Peugeot nuts  at Casini. The margaritas are just for the Airstream  conversationalists. 'You wanna talk about big block Buicks. 
Neil.

hmmm, how about Cognac? I see that 455 Buick.... I helped a friend, or rather 4 of us helped a friend pull his Olds 455 once. I'm partial to engines I can lift by myself, like the Citroen 602cc, or my Saab 850 3-cyl. I wonder how much a Peugot 604 V6 can tow?

Very funny Neil. We shall talk big block shop at Casini, yes?
You know there's no replacement for displacement!
As for the 3 cylinder 2 stroke Saab Peter, I'd be lost thinking where to put lube for the bar oil

that would be a heck of a chainsaw! It might be better suited to one of those gas powered blenders, 55 gallons or so? I can taste the salt and lime already.

Is it too late to give you a yes to this?
