That's a wind catcher if I ever saw one. And I be worried to hit any bumps.

But....where there is a will, there is a way. He obviously had a choice, a camper or corvette......he decided both!!

Props dude, props.

He got the Corvette but the judge said they had to split the Camper 50/50 in the divorce.
She got the *** end.

You do have to wonder what is holding that thing up. It looks like some beams were added to the back of the frame. Lou.

I have seen this photo a few times over the years. I would sure be worried that it would
bend the rear of my frame, their not all that heavily constructed at the rear.
