I met Russell Walsh at the South Australian Caravan Show displaying the amazing model caravans that he builds. He starts with a "blank" of balsa wood and shapes it into the desired shape, usually from only seeing a couple of photos of the intended caravan, which usually takes about a week to construct 3 models allowing time for the paint to dry. He not only makes vintage caravan models but modern caravan and motor homes as well.

This is just a quick video that I whiped up.

If you have a bit of spare time have a look at these 4 videos of a trip that Wally Byam and others did from Capetown to Cairo in 1959.

Just a little video I made today towing the RoadCruiser with a Hutchinson caravan dolly. I always wondered how a caravan dolly towed, and now I know.

This a great British invention of a tent that is set up around a scooter.
The only problem would be that it would need to be dismantled to use the scooter. :roll: :roll:

Another great British vintage caravan video with some fantastic old footage.
I just love the Ford towing the van around the paddock. :D :D
