Hi Mark, I'm researching this topic. Did you purchase a backup camera you'd recommend?

Yikes! Thanks for sharing the pics. I found the recall info and the axle info to share with them but I bet they will play dumb and I'm a terrible negotiator.

They have it listed at 6K. I noticed that gummy stuff around the windows too, which makes me cringe. I'll hate to but should probably walk away if has a lot of evidence of leaks/rotting. I don't want a full build project. I'll ask about an under cab pic. Thanks for the tips!

Hi all, I found a Shorty about a days drive from me at a reseller that is closed today so I can't get anymore info yet but I thought I'd share the pics and ask for your input. It's hard to tell from the pics but someone pointed out it has the 5 lug rear axle so I plan to try to negotiate the cost if possible, because it will need the axle swap. Other than that, are there any red flags jumping out at you that I should be aware of or does anybody know this Shorty? I have a list of questions to ask and want to request more pics and a video walk through that includes the engine running if possible. They are asking 6K and the only description so far is " 1983 Toyota Motorhome for sale. Gas. Clean title. Tires good. Has bathroom with shower. Sleep area over cab. Gas stove. Sink. U- shaped sofa". Shortys are not easy to come across in my area so I'm looking hard at this one but if it doesn't work out, I will travel for one in great original shape and pay more for it, within reason.

Hi Linda, No I didn't buy it. I really want to stay compact. I'm holding out for a Shorty Sunrader! Still looking!

So you think this one is about 22 ft long?

It's just too big for me. I'm looking to stay compact. If it was a Sunrader I'd be all over it but then again, it wouldn't be that price either!

I came across this today in my search for a Sunrader and thought I'd shard since I know 4x4's are desirable by many. I'm looking for a 2x4 Shorty Sunrader but would love to hear if there is feedback on this vehicle. Little by little, I learn from reading the discussions here! https://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Tacoma-Motorhome-Deluxe-Leisure-Odyssey-Conversion-Motor-Home-4X4/202409889803?hash=item2f2091d00b:g:B38AAOSwXl9be4rC
