now that is different, got a soft spot for that cab design, recall some milk
floats as a kid on that chassis, ok perhaps not floats as such but run by
local co-op division.

will have to get you a picture of a motor home a pal took at dorset steam fair
i believe, chassis was a twin steer coach, like italian job, body from a fair ground
showman type truck towed caravan, in wagon and drag configuation in its first
life ie would have had a dolly type front axle. like these touring caravans bolted
onto transit pickups to the ultimate degree....

think seen a bigger one that that, maybe a relative's.

now law has allowed width to 8 feet or 2.5 metres, though length
of body still 7 metres, which is over 20 feet of course, near 23 feet
i believe.
