I m the proud owner of a gutted 1973 Holiday Rambler Vacationer...I have cornered about 100 members in a group on Facebook, if you search for vintage holiday rambler owners youll find us, if you need some more opinions on them.
How much does a Holiday Rambler weight?
I've got a relative with an older model siting in a barn since the mid 70's. Its in the 24-28' range. He towed it with a Chevy Nova back then but never very far and only twice a year. It got hauled home to PA in the off season and back to the shore in the spring.
We all used it, but it was a big ordeal to move it since the car only had a 250ci inline six motor. His other vehicle was an early 60's van back then that had no hitch. Its super clean but its been winterized and sitting on wood blocks for 35 years under a canvas tarp.
A few issues come to mind though with the Holiday Rambler, first off its likely too heavy, second, its no doubt too nice to gut to make a hauler out of, and third, I doubt if the structure could withstand removing all the cabinets and walls inside?
