Meet Shorty, an amazing example of RV camping in the 1980s brought back to perfection. “Take a trip back in time for your next staycation”. In this incredibly preserved 1985 GMC Frontier. This blast from the past boasts an authentic era style interior and exterior. With recent upgrades like a new large fridge, mattress, engine, transmission headers and crossover dual exhaust Shorty flawlessly presents that feel of yesteryear inside and out. While being wonderfully functional and reliable.He sleeps four comfortably in his surprisingly spacious 19.5 foot cabin. He is no larger than a sprinter van making him easy to drive and park. Shorty has 17,000 km on his powerful 350 in.³ 5.7 L classic GM engine. This was the same engine found in the Corvette, Camaro and Trans Am of the day. Many hours and dollars have been poured into how Shorty performs mechanically and looks aesthetically. He will get you to the campground first and be the best looking Glamper there.Load up your pets he loves animals. He also loves music and music festivals. He has an Alpine stereo with four cabin speakers. Shorty is also fully equipped with 35 well thought out standard coach items along with another 88 kitchen bath and living items. Everything you will need for a fantastic Glamping adventure. You can add firewood, a propane stove, chairs, a folding table, generator, bedding, bike rack or whatever you need for that perfect getaway. All with no extra charge.Being in Shorty is like being in a retro parade. You’ll get lots of waves and many thumbs up. He has had many thousands of dollars in mechanical and aesthetic pampering to ensure he runs as beautifully as he looks. From new body graphics and polished exterior to batteries, belts, an engine, transmission, brakes, steering and suspension maintenance. You can be proud of him and please treat him as your own.I will provide you a full and complete understanding of everything Shorty has to offer before you begin your journey.What's includedShorty comes with everything you’ll need or want for your trip including a generator, camping chairs, folding table, firewood, camp stove, awning, bedding, and all the kitchen and cabin supplies you will need. All it no added cost.RecommendationsMost of my renters are from out of province and out of country and enjoy the province from the Tofino on the island right to Banff and Jasper in Alberta. From the Kooteney‘s to Smithers and Kitimat. My Glampers have seen it all and Shorty would be happy to escort you:)Other things to notePlease enjoy Shorty as if he were your own. Respect and love him with no smoking or rough off country roads:)

Please note that:
- Shorty only fits 2 adults and 2 children, not 4 adults, as the 2nd bed isn't long or wide enough
- It needs 30l of gas for every 100km
- It doesn't start by itself when the weather is hot
- the headlights don't always work
