A recreational vehicle or trailer, the vehicle body including opposed sidewalls, wherein one of the sidewalls includes, in an upper region thereof, an elongated recess having an elongated mouth which opens to the exterior of the body. This recess extends in the fore and aft body direction and an elongated reel extends longitudinally within this recess and is mounted for rotation therein about its longitudinal axis. The reel is adapted to carry a length of awning material thereon. A rotating mechanism is provided for rotating said reel to effect wrapping or unwrapping of the awning material thereon to permit the awning material to be retracted into the recess or to be extended outwardly of the recess beyond the sidewall of the body. A door is also provided for closing the mouth of the recess when the awning material has been fully retracted into the recess. |
