The Flash Basbo Atomic Camper

 

It’s got everything you need for camping at Area 51, including a ray gun. Seriously, a ray gun.

The Atomic Camper is solar-powered and includes a full bathroom, kitchen and shower. Click for larger images.

VW Camper Camper

VW Camper Camper

Live in it. Love in it. Gets good mileage, poor performance on steep grades, but you can repair everything on it with a hammer, a screwdriver, an adjustable wrench and a couple of beers.

[Found here, available for under $590 here.]

Shinemobile Babe Magnet

Babe Magnet? Oh yeah. With beads and braids. One minor criticism. This would be an awesome sled if only the driver’s seat were at the other end.

The Ultimate Spoiler

That’s Edsel’s a 1958 Aero Cabana. Really.

[Found here. More info here.]

UPDATE: Just found some pictures of the Aero Cabana in all it’s open glory. Apparently its use wasn’t limited to the Edsel Citation, but it is still a rarity. Despite its aerodynamic form, the Aero Cabana  never quite *ahem* took off.

THE AERO CABANA

Very little is known about this pop-up design, but not because it lacks merit. In the twenties and thirties, many of the tent and trailer manufacturers began building prototypes after hours in small backyard shops in hopes of developing a sound manufacturable product. The Aero Cabana relied on a small number of parts, which, once assembled, created an aerodynamic form that easily mounted to an automobile’s roof gutters. This early–fifties design preceded the well-known Volkswagen pop-up roof tent.

Babe Magnet Guest House

Although it’s missing a community pool and spa with a game room, this looks pretty nice for my future retirement home. Except for inclement weather, you’ll likely find me sunning on the back porch, with a laptop and a cooler, waving to passersby, before the local constabulary asks me to move.
