I bet you have not seen one of these before.
This is a 1978 Chevrolet Van constructed by an older gentleman who had a lot of experience in the aviation industry. As you can see, this is a very unique camper. It looks like a combination of a Chevy van, an Airstream trailer and a Boeing jetliner -- I have not yet figured it out.
This is not your grandmother's camper.
Above the cab rests a large sleeping berth with two porthole windows, which will give you a nice morning light when you wake up. The interior is surprisingly roomy and can sleep four people. The unit is outfitted with a space saving drop down table, a furnace, stove, refrigerator, bathroom, and storage compartments. The craftsmanship on the wood interior is amazing. Proof of the builder's talent lies in his attention to detail. The interior is finished in a beautiful wood. There are few people who would be capable of building a unit like this. The frame has been stretched, the floors are solid and both the rear door and windows function.
This unit comes with a 350 v8 automatic. It runs down the road OK. It just finished a 300 mile trip, but it has a minor exhaust leak.
When you pull this into a camp ground, Burning Man or the local grocery store, I am almost positive you will be greeted by smiling and curious faces wanting to know more. Everywhere I go, crowds seem to appear out of nowhere Everything is there and this unit is complete. It could use some freshening. A polish job would make it look incredible. If you don't like meeting new people, this is not the vehicle for you. Sellingas is and without warranty. I encourage all bidders to view the unit in person before bidding.
I can be reached at (310) 990-8628 if you have any questions.
Overseas buyers are welcome. I have a good contact for shipping for both overseas and domestic buyers. Loading on my end is not a problem.
The camper is for sale locally and the auction can end at anytime.
I was at the Barrett Jackson auction and this would have entertained the folks there.
