Re "Pop" Kaesler's Motor homes. Pop took his family on they're annual holiday from The Barrossa to Goolwa (or Victor Harbour) in 1927 and as was usual in those days they had to overnight somewhere but there was no room at the inn so they had to sleep in a barn."Jesus " Pop said I wont do this again so on his return home he built a house on the back of a 1924 DODGE (not a Ford). The local Mayor liked it so much that he bought it and pop set about building # 2 on a 29 Dodge truck which he went to Qld in. This is the one Geoff and Jude posted above and was photographed at a caravan park in the Barrossa. Nuriootpa I think. The first one is restored and in a museum in Goolwa S.A.
