The world's oldest known MH is going up for auction in the UK. It is built on a 1914 Model T chassis. There are some very nice images in the article.

I guess you can say they don’t make them like that anymore! Very impressive and the expected price seemed reasonable.

Nice post - interesting. In its day I'm sure it was the envy of everyone who had the RV desire. I did enjoy the images.

The engine comparment was more accessible than today's models.

What a beautiful piece of history! If I had an extra $25 - 35K laying around I would try and buy it just for the coolness factor. I believe it will ultimately hammer higher than that though...
