Inter-Action Enterprises camp trailer

Markus Schiavo sent us a link to Inter-Action Enterprises’ 17-foot vintage travel trailer. The web page states that the model of a 1947 travel trailer, and the kit contains laser cut and engraved stabilized resin impregnated board and paper. Even the window glazing is precut.

The Busch Mercedes-Benz ML-Class SUV (#8334 shown above) and Sprinter van (#8337) with outboard motor boats on tandem axle trailers arrived at a limited number of North American hobby shops in October.  While the Sprinter is decorated for rescue service in Germany, the ML-Class is completely appropriate for a North American scene with the factory for the prototype located in Alabama.
