He has since authored six highly-graphic books on homemade building, all of which are interrelated.

  1. Hey Lloyd, hope you’re doing well!

    Although I was there and I and the vehicles look like it (the 60’s), I didn’t start photographing these rigs until the early/mid 80’s! Of course some of the vehicles were from the 60’s and they were certainly inspired by the nomadic movement that started then, I didn’t pick up a camera and start photographing any of them (except mine) until almost 20 years later!
    All the best to you – Rick
