seaside caravan park

[tomqvaxy]

lining up more winter projects. I want to make a caravan park as a destination for a 2' feldbahn in 1:35 scale. with 5 or 7 - i'm an odd-numbers guy - caravans, i'd like to trace the development from the 1920 box on wheels to 1949 factory produced 17' unit.



I acknowledge most of the parts and all of the caravans will be scratch built from styrene & left-over kit parts. also, on the domestic side, to include some of MiniArt & DioPark fantastic diorama bits.



in realization the caravans do not have to follow specific name brands, but the flavor of fashion in their appearance will be the goal. numerous web sites cater to the individual manufacturers.



Q: anyone have a link to caravan construction which shows elevation drawings?



since most I've found focus on sales brochures or overview factory assembly lines, there are plenty of floor plans, but I have been left to my own devices to extrapolate side view dimensions.



any help appreciated; thanks.

I have not seen the information your seeking on this forum. During that period plans were available for people to build their own caravan. Start with Keith Winser books If you have not looked already have a look on the Vintage Forum, Here.


Good luck with your endeavours
