Sorry for late reply, I don't get notified when this thread gets activity. The Grandby is sold and I am keeping the truck (for now). Best to you in your searches.

$10K

looks like a great truck!

Thanks Cooter. I searched for a while to pair this combo and figured it would sell fast, but what do I know? Usually not much. Price drop to $11.5k for both.

F350 I bought this a few months ago and was a single owner before me for 18 years, spent 1/2 life in Utah and remainder in AZ. Only underbody surface rust. Very clean and straight body. A few scratches here and there but overall shows very well and paint shines. It does have some slight...

Thanks guys. It was a great first trip although only an overnighter :) Camped at Roosevelt Lake AZ. Should have brought a thermometer as my female companions were quite cold during the night. Otherwise we had a great time and the Grandby worked great.

Finally got the Grandy shell loaded on my F350 and ready for maiden voyage.

I finished replacing and the roof screws and washers so moving on to interior. The old vinyl tiles looks better in this pic than it really is. Gaps between tiles and the tiles were brittle and cracking. Got it all pulled out and started laying new. The fun continues :)

We had some torrential rains and high winds the other day so was a good bench test for leaks...and leak it did. After getting some great customer service and direction with a call to FWC, I picked up some #10 screws, new neoprene washers, and some marine silicone. I am removing all the old and...

Thanks again. I am looking forward to FWC ownership! Tpuckett - yes got this from a fellow Texan in Tempe :) Small world, after talking turns out he and I went to same Jr and high school years ago in Tx.

thanks guys. A few more pics...started to clean her up today. All the aluminum is in good shape except for one small area that will go against the back truck cab glass area (out of sight. Nothing major. All else exterior wise is decent enough. Interior is the basic shell with some home...

Been lurking here for a few years and always wanted a FWC or ATC. Decided to pull the trigger today on what appears to be a mid to late 90's model Grandby Shell. Overall it seems in really good shape and just needs a little TLC. Looking forward to hitting the trails! It will be coming off...

I notice older units have the tan/brown vinyl and newer ones have gray. Was there a specific year the change took place?

Thanks for the reply. I also heard back from the fine folks at Hallmark and they also agreed this one was a YIKES!

I am considering buying a 1997 Hallmark. It seems to be in overall in decent shape, and I found no obvious problems in structure but I did find some black streaking in certain parts of the interior popup material. I am wondering from the experts here, based on these photos, how big of a...

thanks so much campers for your insight - very helpful! JT

As winter sets in I am getting close to finally pulling the trigger on a Popup. And while i prefer something like a FWC or ATC, I've got some family members that are rather cold blooded so to speak and so I'm also thinking Alaskan. Just curious what camper and heat sources you have and what...

I guess I need a picture :) How much real estate does it take away from the Hawk? An inch? 5 inches?

What is the Chevy notch?

Indeed it is. It is on the Denver craigslist I should say... :)

I don't suppose you would like to take a road trip out west would you? :) Just what I am looking for but NJ is just a tad too far for me to drive. Question - does the sofa fold out or move in some way? JT

How difficult would it be to retrofit the small dinette with a rollover sofa or better yet...a set of these: http://www.foldingbed.net/Item/77265mod JT

thanks everyone for your valuable real world input! Very, very helpful!!! JT

Yes, that's the heart of what I'm trying to understand...does anyone REALLY use the base camp concept in practice or is that a marketing footnote for naiive first time wannabe wanderers :) JT
