O/T Super-hero name?

When I was a kid, there was a live action super-hero that rode around in an RV with his dad (I think...anyway). When he wanted to transform into a super-being he said "SHAZAM!!" What was that guy's super-hero name? I'm thinking Captain Marvel. I'm not sure though. The reason I'm asking is that I really liked that fat lightning bolt he wore on his chest. It would make a cool hitch cover.

LB, I think you mean Captain America. Here's a pic of an action figure from the 70s.

YOU ARE CORRECT SIR! It was Captain Marvel.

Now for all of the geeks out there:

It ran from 1974-1977 (MAN I'm old)

I especially liked the "flying" sound effect that he made. Kinda like the sound of an old pickup that has lost its door seal.
