[VAC] Re: "Park" model misnomer



Hey Fred,

First of all, THANK YOU, for a concise, well written description of
these differences between various vintages.

I have a questions though. Do you mean 1950's coaches didn't have black
water tanks as options, or at all? I'm pretty sure mine does. Inside the
shower, against the back wall, there is a raised platform about
24"x26"x4" that the toidee sits on. I suppose this could have been added
at a later date, as the original toilet was replaced with an Aqua Magic,
but I also found this technical note dated 2-28-58 that describes our
setup exactly:

It also implies that earlier coaches were fitted with multi-part,
probably metallic, black water tanks.
