Travco Family Wagon A100 1965 Phone Case

In 1958, Ray Frank, owner of a small trailer manufacturing company in Brown City, Michigan, designed and built a small custom 'house car' to take his family on vacation. His creation would be so well received, that he would not only coin the term motor home, but define the Class A RV. Frank would eventually have more orders than he could fulfill and sold his business to Travco who would continue to produce his designs for years to come. Travco would expand their offerings, including creating a line of Class C RV's based on the versatile A100 van platform. Dubbing these rigs 'Family Wagon,' they were offered in numerous configurations and with a choice of either the permanent Vista Top, or the Expandable Top.
