Jim's Journey

A Saga of one of the first RV'S to Cross America


by
James R. Norcia




PREFACE

.I had them all worked up to a point that when I suggested we build some sort of a camper body on a Model A Ford truck and head West, everybody hollered, "LET'S DO IT!"

As the unheard of scheme took shape to convert a 1930 Model A Ford pickup truck into a traveling home-away-from-home, little did the five young guys in post World War Two New England dream that their odyssey to California would take them on the ride of their lives. This adventurous, fast-paced saga takes us back to a time when youth, blind fortitude, unfailing humor, and the unbreakable bonds of friendship and family made all things possible. Travel with Jim, Mike, Vinny, Louie, and Mario on a trip that you will never forget.
