Description: Dedicated site for Great Dale House Car Lovers
The Great Dale House Car factory built somewhere between 50 and 60 Great Dale House Cars on Parker road in Denver, CO in the 1960s. The founder, Dale Wasinger, appears to be a very unique individual who succeeded in real estate (millionaire?), the used car business, auto body business, Casino Gambling (he wrote a book), and inventing (he invented a way to cut cars in half).
He says that he couldn’t use the campers of the 60’s because they were all based on trucks; which made it difficult for him to operate and use. He found a 1961 Cadillac with a crushed rear-end and tried to get another company to make a house car for him, but they were too busy… So he made his own. He followed it up with a 1962 Oldsmobile and created a pattern that all Great Dale House Cars would follow from then on.
Here’s a restored version of what the original one might have looked like:
