Actually John DeLorean didn't have anything to do with it, but DeLorean's chief engineer Bill Collins was one of the principals in the company and main designer on the Vixen.Originally Posted by thirdmanj

Is this the RV Bill Collins helped with? I may have to go visit this guy, he lives about 30 minutes from me.

Here's a question from the ad - what possible parts are common between a BMW turbo diesel and a PRV, I wonder?
Dermot
VIN 2743, B/A, Frame 2227, engine 2320
I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

Nothing in the engine, but a really interesting thing is that it uses the same MANUAL trans that the DeLorean does. Imagine a motor home with a manual transmission at all! I don't know but I suspect a custom bellhousing.

LeMay Family Museum in Tacoma, WA. owns a totally working/drivable example of this motor home. It was very recently driven from Tacoma to California and back, towing a flat bed trailer, to retrieve a collectable. "a beautiful trip and we averaged over 22 MPG's" Interesting unit designed to fit in your garage!!!
Google Vixen to find out more and see pictures.
