Hi guys. The cottage trailer is made of elements of the RAF-2203 "Latvia" minibus, but officially the Riga Bus Factory did not produce a new model of the caravan. The caravan was a RAF minibus with a sawn-off front part. Inside the motorhome was divided into two sections: a kitchen and a living area (bedroom). The front door was located on the left, just like the RAF-2203 minibus. The lifting roof is made so that it ispossible to cook food inside the motorhome in full growth. Quite a revolutionary decision in those days! In addition, various lockers for food and things, were located in the kitchen, as well as, a table, a tourist gas stove, a cylinder for liquefied gas. The living area was copied from the compartment of the train car. On different sides there were two sofas, the backs of which were raised (fixed with special hooks in the celling), which formed 4 beds. Model made to order for a private collection. Resin kit. Released in limited quantities. The manufacturer is not known. The quality is poor, the set is not complete. To mask most of the model's flaws, I had to come up with a scene. Resin figure produced by Guntower Models (Russia). Enjoy watching.
