Title: We got a mention in the Wall Street Journal!!! Wow!

Anyone read this article yet? It's about how classic and vintage RV's have become sought after collectibles. They even threw in a mention of us here at Classic Winnebago's...
Maybe that will generate some new traffic our way.

Great!   :)clap  WSJ article...  This is a great website, so no wonder.  So glad I found it.  And the folks who like the vintage RV's, which were built so well.  The information from this website is excellent - mostly experiential, which always works best for old vintage stuff.  I went to a car show once - All American Car Show, down in Santa Rosa.  The little race car next to me had a 454 engine with a roll  bar!  Jeeeeezus!  454's rule!!!! ;)

That's great! Hopefully they'll start re circulating more info on the older models. Hubby and I just bought a 34 foot 1988 safari xlt with a JD chassis and a 460 ford motor. Having a heck of a time finding parts and info

I have a vintage RVs for sale group and yes, the market is teeming with buyers and sellers.   A new generation of enthusiasts is growing!
