Art Himsl's 1937 Chris Craft Zeppelin Roadliner Motorhome Is One Of A Kind...

Named 'The Zeppelin Roadliner' by the famed customiser Art Himsl, this unusual vehicle is one he bought in the 1960's.
With its aluminium framing which was originally covered with a 'Grade A' linen aircraft fabric skin, it started out life as a prototype house car built by a mechanic at a Chris Craft boat dealership in San Francisco and was registered in 1942 as a Plymouth house car.
Today the immaculately presented Zeppelin boasts a 350cubic inch V8 Chevy engine, push button automatic transmission, air-ride suspension, a refrigerator, microwave oven and front and rear air bags.
But do have a look here. Art Deco on wheels...
