But if they're gonna call it a "Chalet", I ain't gonna argue.

On a serious note, they are not as uncommon as I believed they would.

That '76 is bitchin. I thought from the photo that it was like a camper shell that replaced the removable roof and tailgate, in which case I would have investigated further.

I would rock one of those park in the community college parking lot and invite some babes for a fondue party in my Chevrolet Chalet Fondue Party Beast.

My parents had one when I was growing up. So awesome. Rock solid reliable as any K5 Blazer of that era, but you could walk back from the cabin into the camper area. And they had bed back there from that 70s era "non-retractable lap belt" time where you could loosely strap it on and lie down for a nap on a long drive. The center area had a packaged table, and when that was put away, the two couches unfolded into beds. And then the pop-top had two hammock style bunk beds so you could sleep a reasonable amount of people. I'd totally own one instead of my Xterra if it wasn't for the ~8MPG. Supposedly they made a diesel model but the reliability of the motor is less than a small block Chevy and they are much less common.
