Re: anybody know what this is

Front looks like a vintage Spartan, but they had a tear drop back, not a boxy as the photo. There are newer ones that have that back shape, could be front from one grafted to the back of another. Judging from the tow rig the guy has the skills.

Re: anybody know what this is

I've never seen one that resembles it but some small manufactures stayed pretty regional. Check the plates on the truck and trailer and you probably have your answer. They look like European plates and the trailer is probably from there. Maybe one of the members from across the pond can shed some light on it.

It's a great looking trailer and who ever put that combination together does have some skills and a good eye for detail.

Re: anybody know what this is

Took me a bit to catch on. I kept looking for "Bud Zeppelin" or "Bob Zeppelin" from what I could read on the side but then I realized the guy had a helluva sense of humor. It's a "Bed Zeppelin."

You can use bing translation to get machine generated English that's understandable. It's really cool how much the builder's done. Air ride, lowered ceiling, soundproofed interior... The trailer's a Constructam ( http://www.google.com/search?q=Const...&nfpr=&spell=1 )


And the combination was built by John Löfbacka who does some absolutely beautiful work.

Thanks for posting this. It lead to some great photos.
