Hi Guys and Gals,
New member, first post.. hope to start the loop starting at Perth in June 2011. My camper is an oldie, built 1988. Hard floor, side tipper. Basically rebuilt, new hubs, bearings rims and tyres. New wiring, L.E.D lights, new canvas and paint job. Travelling solo ,so camper is the ideal "home" for me

I tow what I have named the 'Brick'.  AKA  1976 Millard van.  My darling and I wouldn't swap it for another at this point of time.  However as we get a little frailer in the coming years an upgrade might have to be made, like having a hip replacement.  Anyway, the wife and I are new to this.  We have towed the brick almost 15,000 ks in the past year and enjoyed every KM.  Back home at Lake Macquarie at the moment and can't wait to get back on the road again, next trip will be Tamworth Country Music.  Sorry about being so drawn out but this is my first entry since discovering this site.

Welcome to the forum Ge57org, enjoy! So long as your bricks got wheels and a bed what more do you want? smile

PS (edit) forgot that I hadnt posted in this thread... yes a pop-top for us too,without a shower. Although, would you count an outside shower-tent?
