Ron Raatz's 1966 Chevrolet C-20 Grizzly Motorhome

          Hey all! Thought I'd send in my recent purchase, and maybe find out if there are any others out there.

         MY truck was a middle-of-the-nite, that-looks-neat eBay purchase -- probably heard of it before. One of those "Honey, if you don't wake up and say 'no' [in a quiet whisper] I'm going to bid."

         It's a 1966 Chevrolet C-20 Grizzly Motorhome with a high torque 327. The information given me was that it was made in Minnesota by a company that made slide-in truck campers under the Grizzly name. This motorhome was one of eight made over the years for the president of the company.

         If any one has any other information about the Grizzly Camper Company or pictures of them, I'd sure like to hear from you.

         I've got some more pictures in my Webshots photo album.

Thanks again,

Ron Raatz
