There is a hunters camper for sale about 3 hours away from me. The Craigslist ad doesn't say or show much. I have no idea what it is, but I like it. I have a call in to the seller. If I don't hear from him this morning, I'll call again. I think I'd cut off the cab to make it more loaf-shaped. If anyone has a guess as to what it is, please chime in. I doubt he has a title but we don't need one in Wisconsin. However, if he does, and it's still for sale, I'm going to go get it. milwaukee.craigslist.org/rvs/4977835701.html

Good Grief! At that price it would be screaming at me if I was within striking distance. Especially since I am sure you would agree it does not need any changes to the exterior paint motif. Definitely push at getting a response from the seller. Good Luck! I have no definitive answer to what it is, but I have pics of a small mid-60's Frolic, with no wheel cutouts and the same kind of siding , although not with the overhead. Norris has a model with similar characteristics from around 1967, but again not with the forehead growth in my pics. Wish they had posted a curb side pic so I could see if the door has a window in it.

Ughh!!! I've left two messages and two emails. Told him I'd send him the money. Thanks for your input Bruce. I will keep trying him.

Cute. Poor thing does have a growth on its head... cutters club candidate for sure. But I personally would leave it. Looks really, really small. You might want that space.

No luck. I bet it sold right away. Unfortunately, the seller still hasn't taken down the ad. I really had plans for this one. Susie, I do really want a small one for myself so I thought it would be perfect for what I want. Oh well. It wasn't meant to be.

While I wouldn't hold my breath, I wouldn't give up all hope yet. After all, its the crazy world of Craigslist.

I've tried calling a couple of times today. It goes straight to voicemail. I did send a follow up email just asking if it is still for sale. No response.

Keep trying. Something with a $300 price tag on CL probably would not require the seller to stand by the phone and/or check their e-mail hourly. They may have taken a short trip. You might be the first one to contact them when they get back, or they might recognize your persistence and contact you first.
