I just came into possession of this 1967 Bus two days ago and have been trying to figure out what type of camper it is. Here are some Interior Pictures and If anyone can help it is greatly appreciated.

For some reason "Sears" came to mind... however, I am no expert. Congrats on your camper; this thread may help you to ID it.
Found in the FAQ's:

| I went to the thread before posting this. So far I was told by a friend it looks like a riviera. Through the thread it looked like it could be a sportsmobile (originally had a toilet seat under the jump seat) or Kamper Kit ( doesn't have the magazine rack but closet is similar) |

I have a 63 Kamper Kit. The real ID for the Kamper Kit is the KK magazine rack. Whats the paneling on your ceiling?
Also most the Kamper Kits I've seen (4 to be exact) all have a red pleather seat cover with the white edging. |

I believe I have the same icebox from an unidentified camper, so I'll be watching this thread for answers...

My interior had(has) that same oak paneling, and the rack on the side of the fridge, faucet but no sink, awning windows, and flip-up tables on the doors. Mine had red vinyl cushions. Never been able to figure out what it was. But I've changed so much of it in the last 20 years that it doesn't much matter.

| Montgomery Ward/ Alabama Camper. I have the same camper kit in my 67' kombi. I'm thinking Ward's made the kit and conversion companies installed it? Not too much info out there. |

Please start a new thread called Kamper Kit and cram it full of pamphlets, brochures, photos, bluprints, stories, any and everything you have to share. Please? |

| I don't know who made it, but it is NOT a Kamper Kit from Campbell, Calif. My family made the true Kamper Kit. |

I had a 65 KK camper that was all original, Velvet Green bus and the KK interior was green vinyl. I sold it to a guy in Hagerstown Md. Seen it a few times after selling but its been years now. Also it had the canopy that was green and white striped. I didnt know what I had at the time. Sad but true. |
