I'm not into campers, but it looks clean. Is it restored or just painted?

Nice camper, but you really need to get rid of the hippy who came along with it. Wink Do you camp in it, or just drive it on occasion?

No doubt. Nothing worse than landing a sweet original paint camper, and finding some squatter hippie living in the pop-top. I guess you could fumigate?
