I picked up this 1966 Salesflap at the OCTO meet in February.
By, "picked up" I mean I paid for it. It still has to be shipped over from Europe, but I plan on having it at Kelly Park.
After that I'll take care of some minor rust issuse and the rear interior.

Converted by an Italian coach builder, this is the only Salesflap I've seen where the flap extends into the roof.
It's still in original Dove Blue paint and has fairly low miles ( a little over 45,000)

More pictures and info can be found here.....

Into the roof? Really. That's odd...I guess it really gives you lots of rooms from which to hock your wares.
