Needs serious roof work. You can see evidence of leaks in the interior pics.

If you look at the old '60s handyman magazines, you'll see pictures of coachbuilt (that is, not homemade) camper conversions like that on lots of unlikely vehicles. They were a thing back then, so this Cadillac conversion isn't any surprise.

I dont recall seeing any built on car platforms though.

That's the strange part. You'd see pictures of them in handyman magazines, but not actually on the road. After seeing this one, we know why. Superior might have built it, but it sure looks like a homebrew conversion involving lots of meth. :LOL:

After the '70's gas crisis, you'd see these show up on lots.

Crank vent windows for the win!

Can you say, "wind noise"?
