Re: Prototype Autovilla
Bullshit......thats the autovilla holy grail.
Are you the new owner?
I was under the impression it was lost forever. If you own it, I would love to see it in person

Re: Prototype Autovilla
I am not the new owner. I only put the two parties in touch with each other. If the forum member wishes to reveal himself so be it

Re: Prototype Autovilla
Yes, I'm in the process of buying this baby.
She's deteriorated a lot since those pics were taken and I really don't know what I'm going to do with her, but she was one step away from disappearing forever and needed to be rescued and mrsfig said I have to do it, so who am I to disobey?
I'm picking her up next week. I'll post pics of the recovery.
Meanwhile, I want to find out as much as I can about this bus. If anyone knows anything at all about its provenance, please let me know.
Also, some time back someone posted a letter to one of the caravan magazines which had a current pic of this bus with a period pic taken when it was quite new. I can't find that post again. Can the OP send me a scan of that letter? Or can anyone else find that post?

Re: Prototype Autovilla
Is it definitely a Jurgens?
The camper sections looks very much like a 60's Gypsy caravan.
Awesome piece of history saved here.

As Wernher says, "another one saved", for sure, congrats Christian, this really is something special as far as our ZA transport heritage is concerned
