Thinking of making a Winnebago.

Note;

 Don't mean to be mean. Never have seen a " Winnie" with a Dual Rear Axle. Mine was the same general body style and it was a Chieftan/W/Single rear drive axle. 32foot!

 Most units running Dual rear axles were a power Axle and a Trail axle and rear engined diesel powered. Such as a Prevost or Numar! There were others though .The very handsome but Poor quality G.M. and Dodge Motorhomes. Now AirStream had a unique one and I think you can still special order that puppy !

Working on the front grille.  

Yes nice and boxy!

Getting the structure together

Got the wheels and tires on.  

The plastic was too floppy so I added wooden reinforcement.

Because the photos obliterate the text sometimes.

It's coming along nicely!

Not a criticism, but just an innocent question: is there any particular reason why you put your text and photos in different posts? It kind of 'stretches' things out.

Master template and side cut out of styrene

I will use the drawing to make a master template.

Ok here is the side view...goung for a short RV 

Might leave it as it is and make a custom.

The rear suspension as you have it now is set up for the twin screw axles.....are you going to keep those or modify back to a single axle at each end.

There were a couple of motorhomes that had twin axles or a drive axle and a tag.  Our GMC has twin rears on a bogie/air bag suspension and front wheel drive.

Ok I think I want to get the differential "pumpkins"installed to establish wheelbase abd then draw the outline for the parts.

Looking forward to this.

Hi;

 I believe you can remove the Cab Bottom rest brace. It won't be needed.

Cool

Oh Hell yeah!!! Will be watching this one!! 

Further suspension work.

LOL.....dedpending on how old it is, might be worth more the the Winny.

Great idea!She might want to save it for her daughter!

No!Do not violate Barbie's house!

 Go to Hobby Lobby and you'll find what you need!
