1937 Hunt House Car With First Working RV Shower

Whenever you have to travel to work, you experience the tiredness that comes along with long periods of traveling to your office. Not having your own car is really difficult. A much-admired Hollywood cinematographer J. Roy Hunt also encountered the same problem. His career required him to be out of town for some weeks every now and then. Because of this experience, after several years, he made a decision to bring his home as he is travelling. He looked for many “Hunt Cars”. The first one that was built was in 1935 while the last one is in 1945. Possibly one of the most infamous is the 1937 Hunt House Car.

The 1937 Hunt house car utilized a 1937 Ford wagon framework. J. Roy Hunt was able to make use of an airplane production to create the modernized structure. He was able to take help from an auto-body center to make its construction. Hunt was successful in building around fifty 50 of these house cars for the next ten years, making it one of the fewest fabrication motorhomes that ever existed and thought by many people to be the first one that has a functioning shower. It even contained a vanishing urinal that folds towards the barrier to enable the shower to have an extra space (take a look at the video).
