Hi all,
I recently acquired a 67 freedom camper snowtop bus minus the snowtop. The guy I bought it from trashed the top. Wondering if anyone here would have any connections into finding or sourcing a new/used top for my bus. Would hate to cover the big ass hole in the roof. I think the snowtops are fun and unique. If anyone has any info please let me know! Also if you have a snowtop on your bus id love to get the dimensions of the top...thinking about making one out of fiberglass if one can't be found. Thank you  |

| Yes it is definitely a Freedom Van. I have the same interior in mine. Thank god I don’t have the snow top. I met the man that built the Freedom Vans and he claimed mine as his. |

Cherry?..... no such thing, because they all certainly look knocked up, therefore no cherry.  |

| I just sold a freedom camper "snowtop" not long ago. There were more than 25 made. Mine was number 55. There should be a plate on the passenger side dog leg with its number. Thats definetly not freedom camper interior. They had shitters built into the interior. If you want some pics of original interior PM me and I'll post them. |
