I also have a snow top, overall in good shape. What did you use for the sunroof hatch? Mine was removed and covered up somewhere along the way.

I met a guy who had one who sells home made pickles out of it. He was at a festival in Berkley. It was blue, possibly 2-tone blue and white. The pickles were damn good too!

Somewhere, I've got copies/scans of a Freedom Camper brochure. I'll try to find it and post it up.

Hi all,
I recently acquired a 1967 Freedom Campers Snowtop bus. I am wondering if someone has some information on what the original interior looks like and has pictures. I have some original interior and other random parts and pieces but not sure how to put all the pieces back together. Also, I know this may be a long-shot but the guy I bought the bus from trashed the snowtop...I now have a very large hole in the roof lol and was wondering if anyone would have any info on sourcing a new top in any condition. Would love to restore the bus to its former glory. Please let me know. Thanks you Very Happy
