9's up ... another mini RV. Seems to be a lot of parts to this one. For a minute there I thought maybe it had an interior, but on a closer look ... maybe not.

Model 4 Finished

Once I figured out that the camper body fits into the flat bed like a tray (Image 1) and that the chassis had to be flush with the front (Image 2) so that there would be room for the fuel tanks (Image 3).

I have started on Model 5 (Image 9). We'll see how far I get.

10 is up, a 1985 Coachman Senator. It's a big 2-sheet model that would go well with the Winnebago. I printed the first 9 earlier today in case I get the urge to build something other than my current project.

Nice little Ape build there Don. I'll definitely be building one of them. Having now built it, do you reckon it will shrink down to the 00 size to go on the parkplatz? It's just gotta park next to a Winebago ... just as the cheeky little beggar would for real like.

Like Stefan, I'd love to see a Redneck Pickup with camper shell, but I'd also like to see an Airstream trailer. Could I also throw in a few more suggestions ...

11 is up. Another big 3 axle RV he calls a Womo_usa_187. if that means anything to anyone? Google brings up loadsa pictures but I'm not relating any to the .pdf.

Wouldn't it be nice if he were populating the Xmas 2017 gallery as he has done in previous years. Honest Volker, the pictures are very useful.

John,

It is a RV on a truck chassis, a Freightliner in this case
These are also referred to as a Toy Hauler, usually for ATVs or dirt bikes, sometimes a BIG boat.

they are not uncommon here in the States.

Hmmm? "Freightliner RV" brings up a whole different set of pictures, but I'm still not seeing a match for that 3 axle layout.

I give up ... I'm just not seeing that wide grill with small square headlamps anywhere. I'm guessing it's quite an early model.
