Here we have some pictures sent in from Bob Rowland of his Standard Atlas Major camper conversion. It’s a 1962 model and one of only 10, originally converted from a minibus.
The conversion is an unusual design, not an official dormobile, but carried out by Calthorpe Coachbuilders Ltd of London.
Many thanks for the pictures Bob.
Finally a big thank you to the guys at Orangewheels.co.uk who supply new Nissan Cars for their assistance in providing free information and help with this site design.
The Standard Atlas Dormobile is again a very rare sight nowadays. Leyland inherited the Standard Atlas when it bought Standard-Triumph in 1960 and it went on to be the Leyland 15 and 20.
We have managed to obtain a picture of an early standard atlas van, but cannot yet source a picture of a dormobile conversion of one, but know they exist (or used to!). If you have, or used to own a Standard Atlas Dormobile conversion we would be honoured if you would be so kind as to send us any photos or stories of the car. We will be delighted to give you your own page of our website in our readers rides section. You can contact us via email at: rides@dormobile-cars.com
