-THE BITCOIN BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

Western Flyer 1941 motor home.

The equivalent of a unicorn on wheels, if unicorns existed in real life, would be a Brooks Stevens design. The 1941 Western Flyer Motorhome is one such unicorn, made even more special after it was sprinkled with magical fairy dust by hotrodder Howdy Ledbetter.

The 1941 Western Flyer Motorhome is an RV unlike any other out there, and not just because it's a very rare Stevens design. When it was re-discovered by Howdy Ledbetter and restomodded, it became a different creature from the original, yet still stayed true to the original styling, if not the original design.

Today, the Western Flyer Motorhome is the equivalent of a living legend. Every couple of years, it emerges online – either for sale or in photos – fueling a new wave of interest in Stevens' work in general, and this vehicle in particular. A single glance at it would explain the attraction.

Brooks Stevens was an influential and award-winning industrial designer whose impressive portfolio includes vehicles like the original Wienermobile for Oscar Mayer, the Jeep Wagoneer, the iconic Zephyr Land Yacht, and a car that turned into a boat called the Lakester. His work was as varied as it was prolific, with all designs sharing the same DNA of innovation and experimentation.
