Gold Streak Custom: Star Streak II

Star Streak II

You won’t see this anywhere else! It’s called the Star Streak II. There were just two made.

This one sits in a museum. Unfortunately, I’m sure, for the RV. What RV would want to be cooped up in a museum. No Recreational Vehicling!

It was built in 1988 using a 1976 Cadillac and a 1976 455 cubic inch Oldsmobile Toronado V-8.

The 455 was a larger big-block introduced for 1968 as the Rocket 455 at 455 cu in (7.5 L) to replace the 425s.

Output ranged from 275 to 400 hp (199 to 298 kW).

It’s front wheel drive and fits in a standard garage!

Its a custom made aluminum-bodied motor home built by Paul Jones of Cape Coral, Florida.

At 84 inches high, the outrageously styled RV was designed to fit in a standard garage yet contain all the creature comforts of a larger, more cumbersome motor home.

The floor is recessed since it’s front wheel drive, so standing is no problem.

Very cool! How do you top that?

There’s also a type of weapon called a Starstreak–Is this RV named after a weapon?
