ABSTRACT:
The following specification discloses a retractable awning for a vehicle. The awning has a portion which serves to form the outside cover thereof when it is stowed and has a plurality of main bracing arms that are angularly secured to the side of the vehicle by brackets attached thereto and a pair of stabilizer arms which stabilize the awning in an extended position when held by the angular bracing members. Both the bracing arms and the stabilizer arms fold into a lead bar which can be wrapped within the awning proper and attached to the side of the vehicle whereby a portion of the awning forms a cover therefor. A pair of fairings or nacelles are secured to the ends of the awning when it is in its stowed condition in order to maintain the awning in a smooth, streamlined configuration.
