<span style="font-size: 14pt">
<span style="font-weight: bold">The Vixen was a recreational vehicle designed by Bill Collins and built from 1986 until 1989. A total of 578 Vixen motorhomes of three different types were built: the Vixen 21 TD (1986–1987), Vixen 21 SE (1988–1989), and Vixen 21 XC (1986–1987).
Oftentimes noted as the &quot;Driver's RV&quot;, it has a very low center of gravity and a very wide stance. Instead of lumbering down the highway, it had a manual transmission and when the turbo kicked in it zoomed down the highway. It would drive as fast as 100 MPH, and still average about 30 MPG using a BMW M21 turbo-diesel engine. Wind tunnel testing was used to create a completely smooth fiberglass exterior top and bottom.</span></span> [/quote]


kinda reminds me of the EM-50 Urban assault vehicle from the Movie &quot;Stripes&quot;

That vette wagon doesn't look too bad; looks like the workmanship was reasonably good.

It looked like it was an Ecklers wagon body kit. The factory back window was molded into the wagon's hatch area. Someone did a real nice job on the whole conversion at some point.

Good article as I get HR at home.

Do you do that for a living, or hobby?
