This 1973 Rectrans Discoverer camper is from the last of a three year production run, and incredibly was designed by the legendary Larry Shinoda. Though he was most famous for designing the 1963 and 1968 Corvette Sting Rays and Boss 302 Mustang, he owned and operated an independent design firm following his departure from Ford in 1969, hence this wild motorhome
Riding on a Chrysler M-300 chassis, there’s a solid axle up front and either a Dana 60 or Dana 70 at the rear with leaf springs all around. Doing its best to push this camper down the road is a 413ci Chrysler wedge packing heavy duty internals, connected to a 3-speed “Loadflite” automatic transmission.
