He decided to use the long chassis of a Volkswagen T5 for it.Įach of these retro campers is individually manufactured make-to-order. Buzz and Marion discuss with the prospective customers about their requirements and they design the layout and floorplan afterward customized with the colors and materials required by the customer. The two have always been traveling with VWs – ranging from a 1954 VW split-screen camper to a Beetle to a modern T5. Eventually, however, there were four children and the Burrell family needed a larger vehicle. The idea for these Retro Tourer RVs belongs to a couple: Marion and Buzz Burrell. However, there is a serious caveat found by these enthusiasts when they dedicate to the preservation and restoration of old and vintage campers: that despite your best effort to restore these retro campers, well, they are still retro campers: heavy materials that difficult towing, presence of asbestos, and more difficult to handle in the road.Ĭurrent retro campers merge the vintage designs we love with modern attributes and features: new interiors, durable and lighter raw materials used in the construction, easier to drive thanks to their improved structural stability and easier to tow due to their low weight.
