Found this guy on Craigslist last night. Tried doing some research and saw a few other threads on them here. Hope someone that can do it justice finds it. It looks like an amazing camp experience.

That is cool.
What is on the back, part of the lift system, looks like be hinged springs.

I think you're right, a period correct tow vehicle for the Odyssey.

I think they are. There was a thread on here where someone was wanting to make a popup style teardrop and it was suggested to use springs like this model with a better picture.
