5k: Camping In Style: 1965 Checker Marathon Taxi Cab Camper Conversion
When searching for a camper there are many options to chose from, but none as epic as this 1965 Checker Marathon taxi cab camper conversion. Find it here on ebay currently near $4k reserve-not-met with four days to go, located in Woodland Hills, CA. This thing is powered by a 400 cubic inch Chevy V8 and features a 110V generator, sink, stove and sleeping for 4. The Marathon is a body-on-frame car so it should be just as durable as your average 1/2-ton pickup based camper. Tip from Andy L.
You campin' with me? You campin' with me? You campin' with me? Well, then who the hell else are you camping… You campin' with me? Well, I'm the only one here.
~ dang! imagine my surprise. i own two vintage class A motor homes but this thing screams my name. i think i'd re-install the meter and and some subtle 'prom-night pimp ride' logos.
I am surprised (maybe relieved) that I've not seen this at the local Sunday morning Car show in Woodland Hills.
