Shortbusadventure's Tiger Motorhome build

[suntinez]

Looking good! Will be interested to hear your impressions once you get it. I really like what the "new" provan is doing these days, a good customer-focused direction.

Very Nice!!! That thing is going to be bada**!!!

Heck of a lot cheaper than an EarthRoamer. I think I am liking the Tiger better than a Sportsmobile.

Wonder how the camper body would look sans paint and polished up.

Coach was mounted to the truck chassis today!
We should be picking up the completed unit on March 25th if all goes well.

Another update

I received a teaser phone pic from an employee at Provan today.
I happened to notice that the stock bumper was removed and sitting in the foreground.

I was able to get another employee to get a shot of the Buckstop bumper mounted. Now were talkin!

Hey Jay,

Sounds like a plan. We really want to check out the expo in Arizona, though I don't think we will make it. Who knows? I will check in with you soon to see what your routes are in the coming months.

Wow... most excellent build! I want to see more!!

Amazing how fast this went together! :Wow1:

Pretty amazing. I watch a drool.

Out of curiosity, why didn't the build that body to fit the full width of the dully rear? It seems like the extra foot of width or so would have been nicer than going with fender flares.

Since SB is hopefully out driving his new 'Super Tiger' :smiley_drive: right now....

The width of the coach is determined by the roof molding (one-piece f'glass, including upper sides and F&R). That's sized for a SRW chassis. They get orders for more of those. On various factory visits in the past 4+ years, I've seen probably 15-20 Tiger builds that were far enough along to tell SRW's from DRW's. IIRC, this is only the second one with duals.

The Bengal coach is taller than a CX like mine, but the floorplan and length & width don't change.

Nice truck camper. I would like to get a good look at the finished rig. I hope you all enjoy it.

Awsome truck and build, I hate to be a crittic but I'm bummed on the fender flares. Could you shave and graft the stock ones on? The ones you have don't fit the lines of the camper and truck.
