I was at a show today and the 72 GMC beside me had an original Pullman Camper top made in California. We're in Florida. The truck was from Montana. Here are some photos:

Ah yes, the suicide foldout windows. I know a guy who had one of those and has multiple scars on top of scars to prove it. He drank a lot and was a bit on the slow side to boot.

I love that Camper Top. I drove a '70 GMC "Longhorn" in High School, that same color. Thanks for stirring the memories.
Wayne, what show was this?

This was a Festival of Speed show during the antique boat show in Tavares, Florida. I was able to sell my antique boat while there.

Hauling boats and campers. All things related to some of our trucks. I'm pretty sure there are lots of fellow Bolters that use their trucks in this fashion. Perhaps they would share their pics of the trucks too. I think though such pictures would better be posted in the Who uses their truck as a truck? - 2021 and later thread! Hint-Hint

Craig, I'm not a boat guy. Also, this one is way too small for me.

Didn't you just finish restoring it? Or do I have you confused with another guy on this forum?

Yes I just finished restoring it. I did it to save it from going to the dump. I wanted someone that really wants to own it be able to enjoy it. I was successful!

And the new owner got a freshly refurbished, custom trailer, too.
