I don't think Dotty is a Shasta. Her body style doesn't look like the right shape to me. I'm not sure what she is though. LOL Jannica. You are absolutely right. Look which side the door is on. Also look at the shape. It's a European trailer and it looks to be made mostly of fiberglass...

This is just WAAAAY Too Cool for school! Are those windshield wipers on the trailers front windows??!! Sense some here know that I have scrapped a time or two in the past, I thought I would post this funny pic (below) I saw on the net of a true scrapper, heading to the yard to get PAID!! I'm gonna make bank no matter what it makes my truck look like!! Gimme dat paper! Make it rain in here!!! Traffic violation. Should have a 1 square foot red flag on anything over hanging the tailgate by 4 feet. If they weren't going to use a red flag, they could be legal by dropping the tailgate! LOL

Hey Soup on your picture of the scraper hauling the Ford, I really like the custom indents they made for the front tires to fit into. I think that was Earl, Earl, and their other brother Earl but I'm not sure.

Yeah, I'm thinking they were probably dropping both of them off at the scrap yard and who ever was taking the pics was driving them home! Dang Cedar Choppers! 8DLOL I bet they didn't have dinette tables in them either.

Thanks Schweet! I can't stop looking at it. I think I'm going to save this pic for my new screen saver at work! LOL Why is everyone here always trying to give me the ones that look like they are past dead or from out of this world? Never mind. I think I know. It's due to me totally loving units like this. Seriously though, I don't think I have EVER seen this much duct tape on anything, let alone a camper. WOW!I can't stop looking at it. It's like an auto accident. You don't want to look but you just can't help it. They should use 3M cold weather aluminum tape instead of adding more duct tape each time. It would last longer on just one application.

It looks like the back is caved in also. I guess if you were to list it on Craigs list it would say" choice motor home just needs minor repair".

This one is for Soup! I would have just driven it through a Jack In The Box or under a low bridge somewhere and be done with it.

Maybe the guy is just trying to use up some of that duct tape all Americans were told to stock up on by Donald Rumsfeld's gang about a dozen years ago...

There is just no excuse good enough for that kind of repair. Even if you were going to half bass it, you could figure out something better than that. I still can't keep from looking at it though.
