| Just would love to see (or win a lottery and own) a vintage motorhome, from the 1920's/30's era. Never seen one at shows or on the road but have seen one or two images. Any enthusiasts here know of one? |

Rick, I have a photograph of the 1920s Austin that you mention up in my loft - it is an old print. I will look it out and post it up.
In the meantime I did come across this interesting camper, which I am sure that the Essex bunch on here will recognize.
