This is tough in the dark. I'm leaning towards a Barth, but don't confirm it. I may have to rent it sometime for myself.

I wonder if Condor II is the model or manufacturer?

Oh, it does quite a lot.

I'm not 100% sure which either, but I've seen Condor Motor Homes built on Ford chassis that used grilles from Ford N-Series trucks, which also closely resembled T-Series and H-Series trucks.

One day someone will get this! I think those new Condors are a different company that probably didn't exist when this sh*tbox was made.

I can't believe no one's identified this! I love to know what this is, it's such a memorably rotten vehicle. Clark Griswold calls it a tenement on wheels.

Does anyone think this picture would look better as the main image, since it's lighter although it doesn't show the whole vehicle?

from the answer on RV forum : "...looks like a vintage Superior motorhome..."

and another: :?

"Two thoughts on the Superior. In the picture, the windshield appears to slope foreward from the bottom to top. Also the window in the entry door is a rectangle. I used to have a '73 23 footer. The windshield sloped to the rear and the door had a round window. That seemed to hold true with the few others that I saw."

could be "wickey, I finally read all of the threads on your site and reviewed the other pics. It is indeed a Condor II, manufactured by Condor back in those days. -Now I think they're made by R-Vision...."

Any idea of the vehicle's country of origin? I assume it's American.

That link will work better: http://www.myspace.com/fordcondor
So it should be refered as "Ford Condor" rather than just "Condor"?
