Then and Now

I thought I'd post a few pictures comparing Myrtle's original condition to her condition now. In these photos you can see her back view and an interior ceiling view. In the back view photos you will see how much more vibrant her color is after washing and waxing. In the ceiling picture, where the ceiling tiles are missing you can note the new wiring that was in progress.

Myrtle as Muse

Myrtle's image has been turned into a lovely painting by the awesome Kate Schutz: Paint and Illustration. (She takes commissions as well!)

Neat blog find

Check out this great site, Vol25 for details on an awesome restored 1976 Sportscoach. As you can see from the photos the restoration is amazing with such lovely style!(photos courtesy the Vol25 site). As well the Vol25 site has written up a little review of Myrtle which can be found here: Myrtle the Motorhome

Myrtle's first car show!

Myrtle made it to her first car show, which was just for vintage RV's. There were about 13 units at the show. It was mostly trailers; including a few airstreams and shastas. As well there were two vintage bus conversions. Myrtle was the only motorhome! Many people toured Myrtle and complimented her vintage interior. We are hopeful to attend some more car shows in the future.

Dodge Builds Tough Trucks Operator's Manual

I was lucky to be able to purchase this little gem book with a box of assorted Travco and Dodge truck documents. Some documents include items literature for the dometic fridge, brochures and manuals for the Onan generator (which Myrtle never had when I got her) and documents for the old Travco Motorcade Association. In the future, I plan on adding full PDF's of some of these resources.
