The craftsmanship actually appears pretty good but I'm with you on the design. It hurts a bit!

 I was going to say that the aerodynamic drag would be huge on that "brick".

What's wrong with it? Really,.. it looks like a totaly fine place to road camp in. Expensive yes...more so than pulling a pop up in a new Chrysler minivan, but you'll get the Caddy road presence that the Mopar will never provide.

I really like it. If I owned it, I would form a big transparent acrylic dome, attach it to the front of the camper in the hope for impoved aerodynamics. But then it would...no....no..forget it. Sorry. Forget it. Just forget this.

Yup, I agree, it's well done and would work great. I just can't adjust to that "snorkel" look!

No, I think this one is just best left alone!

It looks fine from the inside though.

Agreed

It looks pretty inviting inside. I could live in it in a pinch.

It was on Calgary Kijiji. My friend from Saskatchewan sent me the link. I guess it must be gone now?

I was looking for it the other day and couldn't find it. Some lucky Smirf bought it.

No doubt that was a hearse at one time. Good utilization of a hearse ... but still a bit creepy of a camper.

And as far as the '57 Caddy campe goes, maybe it was a travelling morgue on wheels?
