Itasca Phasar Motorhome On The Renault Trafic Cutaway Chassis Located In The Town Of Lena, Illinois

An Itasca Phasar Motorhome (a sibling to the Winnebago LeSharo Motorhome) on the Renault Trafic Cutaway Chassis located in the town of Lena, Illinois.

Winnebago has built the Trafic Cutaway Chassis locally at their plant in Forest City, Iowa from Completely Knocked Down (CKD) kits that Renault has shipped to Winnebago from France. Renault’s ownership in AMC, and Renault’s limited presence at the North American market at this time had made the deal between Renault and Winnebago for the CKD kits of the Trafic Cutaway Chassis more feasible.

The CKD kits of the Trafic Cutaway Chassis would be supplied with the Gasoline/Petrol and Diesel variants of the Renault J-Type/Douvrin Engine, and both the Manual and Automatic Transmissions/Gearboxes that were available in the Trafic in the European market.
