1970 VW Pop Top Camper For Sale
This wonderful looking rig comes to us from Spokane Washington.
It is a very attractive and unique camper that I think is going to make
it's new owner VERY happy.
The van was built feb 6th 1970 and left the factory Feb. 11th 1970 and
was first shipped to san Antonio Texas.
Current owner has owned it since April of last year and purchased it
from a well
known local Vw family who professionally sold Vw parts and complete
restored cars for over 30 years.
This van belonged to the owners
daughter for 10 years and was used for 1-3 camping trips a year, only
with a few concert camping trips 2 hours from Spokane WA.
The poor
thing sat along a house and after some kids stole the speakers out of
it they decided to sell it.

treated.

side…again treated. Was originally going to spot paint but decided
