Sure is. They have two A/S's in the parking lot.

I really enjoyed the short-lived sit-com starring Woopi Goldberg by the same name. Wish "The Baghdad Café" had made it for more than one (or less) season.

Passed this 7 panel going thru Indiana, last Thursday. It had an AC in the rear window, Indiana tags, and was pulled by a dark blue Ford 250. He waved as Bob went past him doing over 70MPH.

It's what you get when an old Cadillac mates with an old Winnebago.

Wow, I am going to guess 49/48 Caddy. I have the bullets off a '53 on the front of my safari and it had quite a different grill and a "fatter" nose on the hood. But it looks like the late 40's version.

The problem I am having is that the peak of the nose looks too thin almost, but it could just be the high quality of the picture taken as the photographer was blasting past in a large brown van (or is it yellow?)

Hey! I gave you two angles. Do you know how hard it is to take photos, deliver packages and drive though a residential neighborhood at 60 mph?

I thought that would be either a Cadillago or a Winnellac...depending on whether the sire was a Cadillac or a Winnebago.

But, I think most likely it's a Caddyshack, for sure!

New Bambi? towed by volkswagon vanagon

Yes, that's right. West bound on New Mexico hwy 550 in Bernalillo New Mexico. I think it was a Bambi, but it wasn't one of the tiny ones. Looked to be 18-20 ft. and very new. According to Vanagon.com 1991 was the last year they were made. And they had...are you ready? A 90 hp engine.

Just watched an odd little movie called El Cortez. There was an Airstream in it toward the end. It apeared to be abn early 60s, just guessing, 20-22ft. The interesting thing was the Wally numbers could just be made out, 4311. LJH

This weeks paparazzi!

The first Trailer is interesting! That's Diamond plate on all the windows and various other spots.


Can you guess whats under the cover?


Found this one waiting for action. With the red truck.



The last one I want. I'm keeping a close eye on it.

Geez Lee

That last one looks like it's ready to head home. Hey, you already have two and space has got to be an issue. I could take that little puppy off your dusty hands - and be there in about 2 hours if that helps. Why, If I left now.......... I could hook up and you wouldn't even have to worry about it going to the wrong home.

Always willing to help out....

On the drive from Parker to Phoenix yesterday I went through Quartzite. It is starting to fill up even though the weather is still quite warm. I saw one Airstream in the desert a little North of town and on the South side of I-10. I only got a brief look and could not tell anything more about it.
