This is simply ridiculous! If Avionistas are not going to
blog here, then let’s move. Where to? Do we need our own website that we
own and control? Ideas? (I for one like talking about Avions!)
Yes , it is very sad since the PB debacle . At one time 67 avion talked about starting a new blog but have not heard anything since . Even though the old pictures are gone we can still post and help each other with questions . My addition for this year has been a pair of Trojan T105 6v .

I'm looking for a C-10, so I'd join!


TCWheels.....I see you are looking for a C10.....I m still undecided as to what i am going to be doing with my Truck. If the decision is made to part company with it,,,,I will have nothing to crry my 1965 C10....so who knows??????

It’s been said before. SearchTempest.Com and look for Avion Camper, all the CraigsLists in America, Canada, and Mexico are there. You’ll find a couple of C-10’s every month or so. Just keep looking.

I check in from time to time. My C-10 was put on the back burner as I moved to a different state in January for school. After school finishes (early 2019), I plan on getting back to it!

Thanks, great advice! I’ve been doing that for a about a year. Found one close to home a couple years ago and kick myself for not getting it!

As Cajunavion said.... this is ridiculous...are we just going to fade away? I am not computer savvy enough to think of a solution. however I too like talking about Avions. there must be a solution...if not...
Well guess I will just have to take my little old C10 Avion, leave the sand box and not play anymore

Is there a Facebook group? Wouldn't necessarily follow a blog format, but would allow for free image hosting and sharing our adventures, projects, restorations, etc.

Well, it looks like we're still going.

Alright, then. Lets start from the beginning. Does anyone have any idea about the most secure picture hosting? Lets nail that down with no wiggle room.

I'll start monitoring this site again. After all, it WAS/IS the most comprehensive Avion truck camper site in the known world. And, of course, we know that the Avion truck camper is probably the best single TC ever designed. Otherwise, why are so many of them on the road after 50+ years? I'll tell you why. Because the Avion TC represented American workmanship and ingenuity at its peak. In my opinion, we're getting that back again after many many years of planned obsolescence and downright shoddy products.

We need this site, so lets work at it.

Onward!

Rastaman, there is no way that you can get rid of your Avion TC. Jane and I will personally serve you cease and desist papers while demanding some of the Jamaica jerk chicken at your place;-) How are you guys doing?

Well said 67!! My C10 is still on the truck from fall. Work situation has changed greatly but trying to stay here in Kodiak Alaska as we look for employment. May be using the camper more this summer than in the last few!!
Look forward to this thread coming back to life!! As one of the very early "groupies" I have learned a lot from all of you!!
Will hopefully hear more from all of you soon!!
