Zepplin style Motor Home

Someone had a picture in the past week or so of a Motorhome at Paso I believe which I thought I remembered. This picture was from the summer of '71 at Andy Brizio's fifth annual picnic in Northern Calif. I think it was owned by the painter Art Himsl. anyway I thought I would post it for your viewing pleasure. The picture is scanned from the Street Rod Quarterly Winter 1971 edition, page 58.

 

yep that`s cool I found this on the hamb, I remember it from a few mag`s

 

i like the early version better,before the lame-ass "street roddified" makeover...

 

Does anyone know the origin of this? Year, make etc...

 

Mid 30's coachbuilt body, I believe.

We have one along those lines, but much uglier, on a Chrysler chassis.

 

It's in HRLC's Paso thread:

There was an article on the redo in StreetRodder a few yrs ago. They replaced some fabric body panels with metal.

 

Me too. But I still like my 1966 Streamline Travelhome better.
George, thanks for not mincing word.

 

It's also on the cover of the book "Mobile Mansions" by Douglas Keister.
