What is it? “World’s longest truck camper” or Class C motorhome?

We stumbled upon this photo. There was no explanation of what it is, where it is, or anything else. So we’ll ask you a couple of questions:

• Do you know anything about this RV? If so, please tell us by leaving a comment below.

• How would you classify it? We’re thinking “World’s Longest Truck Camper” because it’s hard for us to imagine one any longer. But maybe it doesn’t get the “world’s longest” title. Still, you must admit it’s pretty darn long for a truck camper.

Or is this just an odd-looking Class C motorhome? Your expert opinion is requested.

And what do you suppose is the story on those funny windows near the back?

If the camper is conveniently removable so it can stand alone on its jacks then it is surely a Truck Camper but since there are no visible jacks in the photo that I can see it is most definitely a Class C motorhome.

Looks like it may have started out as a truck camper indicated by the S&S style of front corner windows on the cab-over of the camper, and probably grew from there as a project. The front of the vehicle is clearly the frontend of a Chevy pickup early to mid 70’s. I am guessing it is the project of a shade tree mechanic with a passion for making stuff for his/her own passions. It’s certainly unique!

I’d says it’s someone who had some money and an imagination. looks really cool and useful.
Even looks well constructed.

It does look … interesting. As for the category it’s definitely in a class of it’s own. If we need to pin it down my vote goes to a customized Super C.

Looks like something from the Red Green Show. One of a kind homemade out of a few different subassemblies.

Good catch. As Red Green would say, the guy is probably not very handsome…

No jacks to remove it, no tie downs, therefore Class C.

The windows are either portals for a nautical themed interior or gun ports for the zombie apocalypse.

Hybrid truck AND trailer chassis with custom built living quarters. In Missouri, it would be titled as a truck using the truck’s VIN and likely licensed as “18,000-pound beyond local”.

World’s longest ‘chassis mount’ recreational vehicle.
