Well folks,
This build and this approach isn't for everyone.

The base unit is a 1973 Winnebago Mini Winnie, power is supplied by a Dodge 360 engine.
The trials and tribulations are all here and encompass a couple of years of my life an ten thousand miles of travel across the USA. All the highs and lows are here as I prepare for the winter in Florida and points north. My home is in Tomahawk, Wisconsin(northern Wisconsin).

We are still thinking.

Hi everyone, I'm on the road and posted more pics on my site that's linked here.
Click on the last paage if you aren't interested in all the trials and tribulations or remaking a '74 Minnie Winnie into a functional dry camper. Not fancy, functional. Anyway I just did 1500 mile plus leaving behind -30 degree weather in northern Wisconsin.
The vehicle ran beautifully and the wood stove heater and solar syslem are proving to be very reliable. Sub two dollar a gallon gas and 10-12 mpg make everything that much sweeter.
