have the best of both worlds....restore her in black with blacked out windows....she'll look like a van but still be a camper inside.

hardly any of either over here... I've been getting great comments about my camper recently (apart from an old git who couldn't see that a purpose built mk2 was worth more than a converted Mk3/4 van he bought for a song.

I find you get a good few chancers phoning with offers. I ignore them if they text and turn them down flat if they phone....."come and have a look and then we'll talk money" is my motto
It's early days , I don't think any camper will sell this time of years, Spring would be a good time to sell.
PS I'm getting to enjoy my Camper...will probably keep it unless I get a really good offer.

I said to kate if I don't go this side of Christmas i'd repair the inside roof and try and tidy the cab but at the moment we could really do with the money,it wouldn't be so bad if we could use it.

what state is it in anyway? not totally sure as a strip down will no doubt reveal more rust.from looking at her i'd say: new cross member new spring hangers both front doors bonnet both steps n/s wheel arch possibly lower side panels 2 rear doors(i have replacements) i think the pop top has a couple of small holes but nothing major.

Maybe look out for a van roof - if one turns up at the right price then van it, if not camper?
