For Sale or Trade -- 1979 El Dorado 18' RV

Had my Ford-tough camper for two years,love driving it and living in it, time to settle down and get an old beater car to match a new binational lifestyle in Tijuana. 135k miles and still going strong (likes 75 just fine, but that cuts the gas from 11 or 12 to 7 or 8 mpg). Outside is butt ugly, most of which is my fault, but young Mexican men seem to find it cool for that. Inside is a tiny dream home, in my opinion. It's pretty, there's room for everything a girl/boy needs, a 2-burner propane stove I have cooked meals for 4 on, along with an electric fridge i bought that has a freezer fitting two ice cube trays and a pound of butter! The bed is a metal church folding table (plenty of storage underneath) with a single mattress on top. When I am stationary long enuff, I use the cab as a sitting area/den space.
The 100% non-negotiable price is what I paid, $3000. I've got the original manuals, as well as receipts for various stuff. Right now, I am in Asuncion but could meet someone elsewhere if the timing were right. Send me a U2U with your email address and I will send as many fotos as you like. Or call me at 661-527-9826 or email me at bajasusana@gmail.com

Where is it registered, and is it current? Any chance of posting a photo?

I have a similar old rig in Northern CA that I wish was in Baja, but I am reluctant to drive it very far at it's age.

it is currently on pno (planned nonoperation) status in CA USA, which expired on 20 sept. i have the neweal form -- it's $140 including the late fee -- but there's no reason it couldn't be registered as active up there.
i am just hopeless at posting fotos on here (and PLEASE dont anyone tell me again how simple it is -- we can all agree i am ignorant), which i why i asked folks to send me an email at bajasusana@gmail.com so i can reply with buncha fotos.
thanks.

Susan, I'm with you on how difficult it is to post fotos. Not even going to try again. I do appreciate those who have mastered this. We have some excellent ones on here. Good luck selling your rig.

Good work getting the photos posted Susan. I also have not made it through the seven step program, known as photo bucket. I don't do face book either, but since you figured it out, I am inspired!

I actually think your rig would work out better for me than the one I have stored in Northern CA, but mine already has a permanent AK registration, with no CA smog, back fees, etc., so I think I will stick with my known/unknown Dodge rig.

Good luck with the sale.
