The 31C also gives you the option to add a king sized bed. This bedroom boasts queen sized beds, while the 26A gives you the option to add a StudioLoft. Interested in learning more? Read our Brave Motorhome review.Īfter a long day of making memories with the family you’ll want to bed down in a comfortable space. The powerful Triton V10 SEFI engine promises to last for years to come and get you to your destination with ease. This motorhome is built on a Ford F-53 chassis, that’s durable and enjoyable to drive. Just because the exterior is a throwback doesn’t mean you’ll lack on modernity. Bold colors and eye catching designs are just the start. The exterior of Brave features the trademark Flying W and eyebrows the Winnebagos of the 60’s and 70’s were known for. Subaru 1.The Winnebago Brave class A motorhome is a unique motorhome that offers modern design with a throwback to retro styling. Ive changed a fuel pump in the gas tank, i would much rather the simple 2 bolt fuel pump on the side of the block, theres a huge price difference too.some may call it progress, gag me with a screwdriver your not making my life easier i guess it keeps the garages in buisiness. For the privilege of never having to worry about s sensor or a bad plug, gas cap sensor, mapp sensor maff sensor, check engine light, pcm ecm, oh we cant give you a sticker, you need the upgrade, yah it could be a bad ground making the computer finiky, Gee for myself only i am more apt to save money and have less hassle going old school, sorry garage I would rather carry a spare hei and a two bolt fuel pump. īut i will give up the hp the mpg, and all the electronics for the simplicity and reliability of a 70 vintage 350. The LS swap compared to a 70 vintage chevy 350 with a quadrajet and hei Will probably offer more hp more mileage more control as well as plug and play. Mine had a mint 413, the bias ply tires would rattle everything in the cupboards And i was afraid to go faster than 30 Untill the tires warmed up im grateful the drywall screws or glue or whatever held this box together would hold for just one more time. The bidders are all over this one and I have to wonder what their reserve is if $25k isn’t cutting it. The seller says that it will happily cruise at 75-mph past slow-moving vehicles with their flashers on going up hills. Yes, a Dodge Hellcat transplant may have been cooler to keep it in the Chrysler family, but who can argue with this? I hope not many. If this isn’t as cool as it gets it’s pretty close. It also has the van’s independent suspension and quite a few more upgrades.
It’s backed up by an equally impressive 6L90E 6-speed automatic overdrive transmission from the same Chevy Express van. Here’s the big thing with this small Winnebago, a 2010 Chevrolet 6.0L V8 which should have more than 300-hp on tap. There is something about a bright, crisp, clean vintage motorhome that’s appealing, right down to the bathroom and kitchen area. As long as an owner likes something, that’s literally all that matters. Of course, what I like or don’t like has zero bearing on anything shown here. I’m glad that they kept the dash in a time capsule early-70s avocado green color because the living quarters have been purged of any retro feeling whatsoever, which is super unfortunate in my world. Hey, that’s not a 1972 steering wheel! While this ’72 Brave looks bone-stock on the exterior, the interior has been updated considerably. You have to read the seller’s description, it’s eBay hall of fame worthy, one of the best that I’ve seen.
The owner of this D-18, or actually it’s a custom C-18 now, said yeah, that Dodge 318 V8 isn’t going to work as you’ll see in a minute. If a customer wanted the shortest model, they were stuck with a Dodge engine. The company made a longer version of the Brave, a D-20 or C-20, depending on if it had a Dodge or Chevrolet drivetrain, and a D-20RD or C-20RD if a person wanted a rear dinette.
Basically, it’s a box on wheels with no recognizable van cab and chassis with a big camper parked permanently on the back of it. I think of a Mini-Winnie as a Class-C van-cab type of motorhome, whereas this is a Class-A motorhome. The bones of this RV rig are basically a very cool and very small, relatively, Winnebago Brave D-18, sometimes referred to as a Mini-Winnie in literature. The seller has this very cool, modified motorhome listed here on eBay in beautiful Carlsbad, California and the current bid price is a mind-numbing $25,100, and the reserve isn’t met! This 1972 Winnebago Brave looks normal from the outside but there’s something lurking within this one. Hold onto your hats with this one, your combination Winnebago/Chevy hats, that is.
