Much sweeter than a Postal Yellow Singlecab.

You lucky dog you!!

That's a terrific find with all the tasty parts that most people don't have for their camper.

I wonder if I have something that Brad wants to trade for it?

Seriously, super awesome, can't wait to see it.

The right time + The right place = priceless!!! GOOD JOB

Thanks everyone..I just got lucky.

Here are scans of the slides that I was given.

As you can see by July of 1962 the original mirrors had been changed. Im assuming the taillights were changed after it was back in the States

The dates on the slides are July 1961 Grund, Switzerland







July 1962 Brussels Belguim, Pics taken while visiting the Worlds Fair Grounds

"Lucky" - That's an understatement...you should feel embarrasingly guilty with that find!

one more

Great find......... I saw your post on Samba first and then on The English site I frequent....... The Guys in England say it BEST........ The Bloody Lucky Yank........ Right time, Right place is an understatement......... we will all see that Camper a mile away with that smile on his face........

oh is that the SSVC site? or a different one...I only post/read on a few forums...

you can read this on samba..but i'll keep this updated too

Here comes a long post and lots of pics.

Got home from work just before the light started to fade. Got to go through the bus though and pull out all the stuff hiding in it.

First things first
Correct Vin is 745837 that is March of 61 correct?
Also there is no mcode plate...there are seat belts installed but theres no evidence/holes where the mcode plate should go...its a mystery to me.

Ok let do this in sections

Interior shots
Sisal Mat


white seats are sorta ugly will live with them for now


flipped


cups/chandelier


spare/table stand


better shot of my bowl


Rear cabinet


wood door panel shot for Clara


dash/you can kinda see the coco mat there


All the curtains show some fading but nothin too bad


Front door/window curtains laid out

Screens/Tents

In the info I got the owner said they had screens made to go over the rear and side door before they went on their first 18 day 5000+ mile trip

Pretty awesome stuff! Zippered in the center


Just slid this over not really installed


Suction detail


found this junk inside
small bag was hiding under the rear seat




foyer tent spread out/they used this one the most because it was easy to set up when they moved daily according to their story. It had some discoloration on the top but other wise is in great shape...it was hiding under the rear seat. I was excited to discover it there


This I assume is all the pieces to the big tent. I wouldnt be surprised if it was never set up...its totally clean and the colors are vibrant


poles/childs cot


stakes and bag
