1955 Mercury Montclair Camper - Too Cool

This is a little older than the cars I usually post, but I've never seen one of these before and found it really cool...

This is a camper built on to the back of a 1955 Mercury Montclair. It looks like there was some company turning these out in the 1950s as I found another one on a site called RustFreeWesternCars.com.

The seller "refurbished" this one in 1985 and installed a 351 Windsor and a 4 speed manual transmission from a 1970 Mercury Cyclone.

With the semi-modern engine and transmission, you probably could take this thing on a cross-country camping expedition. Imagine the looks you'd get...

A big thanks to JaCG reader, Ric W., for sending me the link to this camper.
