Default Anyone in San Diego?!

I found a camper and I absolutely love it. Is there anyone in the vicinity who would be willing to check it out for me and let me know what kind of shape it's in? Only real thing to look for is water damage on the inside walls/roof.

And corrosion. If it's near the beach, you need to check for corrosion.

Hook that thing up to the VW microbus firetruck. It'll look like a 60's acid trip.

I'm sure it would...but then again going 30mph down the highway might also look like somebody's on a 60's acid trip.

I'm heading to an event this weekend and then I head up to San Francisco on Sunday night for a week.

I don't have a ton of wiggle time tomorrow, but I will be in Garden Grove. Maybe the guy would be willing to meet me halfway tomorrow morning? Maybe around Mission Viejo or Laguna Niguel...??? If so, I can squeeze it in.

He's listed as being in Oceanside, which is about 40 miles north of SanD.

Edit: Have you contacted him yet? Or would you like me to reach out to him and see if he'd be willing to meet?

I'm probably less than 15 miles from that thing. Gas is almost up to $5/gal with our refinery shutdown crisis, but maybe if I'm feeling froggy on Saturday sometime, I could take more pics of it for you.

I'm so close to pulling the trigger on this one. Already priced out shipping. Lemme see if I can get his number and schedule a time to see it. I''d be more than happy to pay you for your time and gas. Just want to make sure it's not shit before I spend the $$ on it!!

You could make a Cheech and Chong movie with the leftover seeds in that thing.

You have a place to stop here for the night on the way home if you take I-10

It looks so cool!

I like it!

And agree a quick check over could save some time, but if ok...

Wouldn't it be more fun to just hitch hike out there and take a look before you pay?
