Avion truck campers - Hundreds of photos
Without going into too much painful detail, we had a mishap several week-ends ago. While working with sand bag crews on the Mississippi River, the truck and camper fell into the flood waters as a road...

Hello everyone, I have a few questions about these truck campers. I have restored my grandfather's '72 Chevy 3/4 ton and am trying to relive my childhood in a way. Grandad had a truck camper (not an Avion, regrettably) and my family and grandparents would go camping together a lot when I was small. Anyway, now that the truck is nearing completion I'm starting to try and locate a truck camper to go in it. I'm intrigued by these Avions. I have located a '68 c11 that is a couple of hours from me and am trying to figure out how to transport it if it suits me. The '72 isn't up the trip quite yet, and my other truck is a '14 Ram 3/4 ton 6.5 foot bed. I do have quite a few trailers in the family that I can borrow.
If someone can give me some measurements I'd appreciate it. I'd like to know the width between jacks, height of the cabover above the truck bed, and how far the back tail pan sticks down below the bottom that sits on the truck bed. My idea is to haul it on a flatbed trailer. If anybody has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
I've read the first 50 or so pages and haven't readily came across an answer. Sorry if this has been duplicated somewhere. Thanks.
