While I've enjoyed every one of my various camping rigs ranging from an unknown brand of TC that was manufactured in 1958 through a few MHs and a TC or two I guess that first TC would be the worst of them. Siding was steel, walls were 1/4" birch plywood, seats were sprung and horsehair. Heavy. Truck was a '69 Chevy 1/2T. Pulled okay. Camper had an icebox that looked like a '50s refrigerator, and porta pot in a closet, and butane lights inside. No tanks, cold water city hookup to a sink that drained out the side. Lots of camping in it. Basically a hard sided tent. Got my orders for Germany and couldn't give it away. Ended up dumping it off the back at the county landfill.
One cool thing, though, it was made for pickups with much taller cabs so you could look over the roof of the Chevy through the front lower window. Kinda liked that.
Then there was the 72 Pace Arrow MH that, shortly after buying it, the roof peeled off at 60mph on I35. But that's a story for a different campfire...
