Re: The first Class C motorhome? Reply #3 – March 05, 2022, 01:13:46 pm Yes, there were plenty of "house cars" built on Model A and even Model T chassis way back when. And there were a number of motorhomes--mostly one-offs--built on truck chassis in the Twenties and Thirties. Lazy Daze was probably the first motorhome built on a minivan chassis (originally cut down from actual vans; later using cutaway chassis supplied by automakers). So if you like, Lazy Daze was first in a narrowly defined category. 6 Likes

Re: The first Class C motorhome? Reply #5 – March 06, 2022, 12:19:16 am Dunno. I was in it when I visited the factory many years ago--that's when I took that photo--but it was too dark to get decent photos with the camera I had at the time. The interior decor was pretty hideous, as you'd expect from a late-1960s recreational vehicle. ;-) Maybe somebody else has photos of the interior...? 1 Likes
