Hi Guys and Gals,
I have been born and raised in Oregon, my wife is form SanDiego. We both love older cars and trucks. I drive the Burb daily 70 miles to and from work and we use it to haul our hounds and friends on the weekends. It has a 250 /sm465/ 86 caprice 3:08 combo now and after getting a 20' Avion, we need a deeper gear and a 4sp 700r4 or a T5 conversion. Here's a couple pics.

Stop by and say hi if you see us at one of our favorite camp spots.

Newfisher,

Is your trailer the Avion you refer to or an Airstream? Sorry about my ignorance - I would not know the difference, unless I saw a nameplate.

Its an Avion, a very close cousin to Airstream. Same design, different build techniques. They say that if Airstream is the Cadillac of trailers, Avion would be the Rolls Royce. They are both great trailers and pulled behind the Burb, its hard to get set up and make dinner at the busier camp spots!

Hey Newfisher, Welcome from another Oregonian. Being a native Oregonian we know it is one of (probably) the best place in the country, we just have to keep it quite on the internet especially when everyone else is suffering with hurricanes, heat waves, etc. In exchange, we just have to put up with a little dampness for most of the year in exchange for some awesome summers. I too have a burb, but mine isn't in as good a shape as your's. Do you ever get to McMinnville? We are having a "cruise the gut" weekend of August 24 25? Just google it for a video of last year. It was pretty cool. Welcome!!

Hey Newfisher welcome to the 'bolt,we've already met over on the HAMB.
I can't retrieve your pics here but as I've already seen them I know how nice your 'Burb is.
