Search here for Sportmobile or Campmobile there are a few threads on them plus some old sales material. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/lit/67sportsmobile.php
Here is a letter we got from Travel Equipment years ago.
When we had a contract with VW of America, it was called a "Campmobile."
The first two years or so, the cabinets and paneling were solid
birch. In '
63 or '64, we started using ½" plywood with a Westinhouse countertop
type
laminate on both sides.
For the first number of years, all our production was sold through VW of
America and our Fords through the Ford Motor Company. We discontinued
our VW
conversions in the late 70s. Actually, I didn't start the business. My
father did in El Paso, Texas. I joined him shortly after. My father
ended
his participation in '64 when we became a division of the Travel
Equipment
Corp. in Elkhart, Indiana. |
