Default Newbie...Does anyone recognize this truck?
I just bought this 1984 Toterhome. Apparently it spent most of its life in Michigan pulling an ARCA stacker. Does anyone recognize it / know anything about its history?

Currently we carry 42 gals of fresh water, about to upgrade to 105 gals.

just upgraded to a diesel Onan and plumbed it to the fuel tanks (we carry 220 gals of fuel.)

Mainly use it to pull our Land Cruisers to off road events and occasionally to my Son's mountain bike races.

We even built a little garage in the backyard for the Pirate ship (also powder coated the compartment doors.)

The truck looks familiar. We crewed for an ARCA team for a while, that's where it might be familiar from.

Did you plumb the fuel for the diesel generator at about the 1/4 tank mark?
