VintageBus.com Image Gallery - Bus Clones

Pix of bus-like vehicles. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, and man of VW's period competitors tried to emulate their sucess with the transporter. Even Chrysler is a modern day hanger-on, claiming to have invented the minivan (VW 1949), and claiming to have invented the double-door (VW 1953).

Sanfu 500 1984 Van
We need a starter for it. But... since it has a Subaru motorcycle motor, it can be kick started. It has never ran on anything but propane!

This is a 1964 GMC step-van that has been converted into a custom camper. The top half of a late-model VW Camper has been welded on top of the step-van to make a second story (and a third when the VW is popped). The camper is wired for both AC and DC power, sleeps up to 8, has a sink, icebox, propane stove, kitchen table, and lots of storage. The interior is all cedarwood and has a rustic cabin feel. All the windows have screens, and there are fans throughout. The camper is also complete with oak hardwood floors! The GMC has a strong straight six engine. The engine has not been started in more than a year, but ran strong before being parked and should start right up with a little know how. So what's the problem? The GMC needs a new steering box. This camper cannot be driven home. Buyer will need to find a new steering box, or have a new one made. You will need to arrange for it to be towed or fixed before taking possession. This vehicle is perfect for cruising the country, or parking out in the woods and squatting! Two golf cart batteries allow you to live with power for up to a week (est). The pictures listed are from three years ago, and the vehicle is dirty now from sitting, but will clean up nice. I may have some pictures left from 4 years ago when I bought this, and you can see how much better it actually looks now! I put a lot of time into this vehicle. Some things that I put in new: fuel tank, fuel pump, flooring, paint job, DC electrical system and lots of little things. Seriously, even if you didn't want to fix the steering box, this camper would still make a great home for someone wanting some shelter in the woods. It could even work as a weekend hunting cabin! The camper is water tight, and the weld around the VW does not leak at all. The windshield on the VW is cracked though, and could be fixed under insurance, although it never bothered me. If you want some more info, please email me at schooloftrout at gmail-dot-com. $1,300 - or make me an offer
