  • 1997 Civic Camper Trailer Conversion

    1997 Civic Camper Trailer Conversion

    If you always wanted a camper, but all you have is a car with significant front-end damage, this could serve as inspiration. Apparently, however, the seller sought this out and bought thise Civic in pre-wrecked condition.

  • Lamper or Contamper? 1960 Lincoln Continental Camper Conversion

    Lamper or Contamper? 1960 Lincoln Continental Camper Conversion

    Yes, indeed, this is a 1960 Lincoln Continental with a full camper on the back. Supposedly, some Ford truck parts might have been used underneath, but the seller isn’t sure. We just know it’s got massive potential and it has a toilet.

  • Rough Morris Dormobile

    We’ve vaguely heard of the Morris J2 and J4 commercial vans, but confess never having seen nor heard of the Dormobile variant. Today’s example is very rough, but complete enough to largely serve as its own template for restoration.

  • Westfalia Vanagon Wearing Gulf Livery

    Westfalia Vanagon Wearing Gulf Livery

    VW T3/Vanagons are some of the slowest vehicles one can love.  Trust me, I own one.  Still, these are true enthusiast vehicles which offer a lot of fun in camper form.  Someone decided that today’s feature would be better off with Gulf Livery to give off a racing vibe, for better or worse. Don’t worry,…

  • Save this Falcon Ranchero Project!

    Save this Falcon Ranchero Project!

    Falcon Rancheros are just plain cool!  Although the Mustang was based on an updated 1964 Falcon, many parts still fit, which means you can do just about anything with one of these little trucklets.  These didn’t come with a V8 until 1963, but they easily accept one. The owner of this one has done some…

  • Three on the RV Tree: Econoline Pickup RV

    Three on the RV Tree: Econoline Pickup RV

    Anyone can find a Volkswagen Westfalia Camper, your host included, but this is a bit more unusual.  Ask yourself when you last saw an Econoline pickup, then whether you’ve ever seen an RV version. This truck features an inline six (mid-mounted, of course) with a three-speed manual and column shift.  The seller provides very little…

  • Just another VW Beetle-Based Camper

    Just another VW Beetle-Based Camper

    Once upon a time, we posted a thing of beauty known as the “Little Bugger”.  Here was have a “Super Bugger”, which appears to be a very similar – if not the same – RV kit based on  a classic VW beetle. Maybe the purple paint with flame job makes it super?  The structure looks…

  • “Different” Camping Trailer or Second Half for your Expedition

    “Different” Camping Trailer or Second Half for your Expedition

    I don’t know what it is, but the story behind this must be interesting. I suppose it could be as simple as “I wrecked my Expedition, but the back half was good.  Why waste it?” The ad raises some concerns: 1) The seller claims this sleeps four – you’ll get to now each other very…

  • I Might Have Van Envy

    I Might Have Van Envy

    Here we have a German Camper by Westfalia NOT made by Volkswagen, but named after a famous explorer and cartographer. These James Cook campers seem to have quite the following on the interwebs, but it’s not clear whether any officially made it to the US.  It’s definitely a cool rig, though the extra height and…

  • Cool Little Bugger

    Cool Little Bugger

    As the seller states,”well if you are in favor of the odd here it is.”  From what we can tell, a few companies made camper conversions for VW Bugs back in the day. We don’t know much about them, but anything called the Little Bugger is just cool. This doesn’t seem like something you’d want…
