1973 Corgi Juniors Wigwam Camper Van

The Corgi Juniors Wigwam Camper Van is a fantasy vehicle ā€“ no doubt inspired by the impact that Mattel Hot Wheels had on diecast toys ā€“ with large windows, a huge skylight and a detailed interior. First released in 1973, the Wigwam was produced in four color variations (metallic magenta, dark blue, medium blue and purple) up to 1975. This blue model is another of my finds, this one from the Paramount East Antique Mall, from my holiday break antique store tour of the city.

The Corgi Juniors Wigwam Camper Van has an unusual cockpit and front door configuration.

It also features a tow hook, but Iā€™m not sure which of the Corgi Juniors models it might have towed.

The large skylight allows for a nice view of the interior details.
