1968 VOLKSWAGEN CAMPMOBILE PROJECT OR A REALLY GOOD PARTS CAR. MY DAD LAST DROVE THIS ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO. HE ASKED ME TO .GET IT RUNNING AND SEE IF I COULD SELL IT. I REBUILT THE CARB AND REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND SPARKPLUGS. I PUT A LITTLE OIL IN THE CYLINDERS AND DID A COMPRESSION TEST: 100 100 100 75. I INSTALLED THE NEW PLUGS AND GOT HER RUNNING. THE ENGINE DOES NOT SMOKE OR RATTLE BUT DOES NOT HAVE LOT OF POWER. MY DAD SEEMED TO REMEMBER HAVING A PROBLEM YEARS AGO WITH THE VALVES DRIFTING OUT OF ADJUSTMENT ON A REGULAR BASIS (THE REASON HE PARKED IT) I FABRICATED A 1 GAL. FUEL TANK TO RUN IT OFF AS THE VW TANK IS FULL OF REALLY STINKY BROWN GAS. I CLEANED A LOT OF MESS FROM THE INSIDE. IT APPEARED THAT ONE VERY INDUSTRIOUS SQUIRREL HAD FOUND HIS WAY INSIDE! LOL. MOST OF THE CANVAS IS USABLE AS PATTERNS AND THE VAN ITSELF IS VERY RUSTY. I WAS ABLE TO FIND THE WATER TANK. THE BOTTOM DRAIN PLUG THREADS WERE CRACKED. REPAIRABLE. I AM STILL LOOKING FOR THE FAUCET AND THE LINES. THE PARTS ARE ALL ON THE PROPERTY I JUST HAVE TO FIND THEM. VAN HAS NO BRAKES EXCEPT EMERGENCY BRAKE. TIRES HOLD AIR AND IT ROLLS PRETTY EASILY. WINDSHIELD IS BROKEN DO TOO A GOLF BALL. REAR SUSPENSION MOUNTS ARE VERY RUSTY WERE THE MOUNTS ARE ON THE FRAME. I HAVE FOUND THE TENT POLES FOR THE OUTSIDE. I THINK I FOUND THE TENT IN THE GARAGE BUT I AM NOT SURE. I HAVE A GOOD PA TITLE FOR THIS IN FRONT OF ME AS I TYPE THIS! IT STATES VEHICLE TYPE AS MOTORHOME. PLEASE LOOK AT PICTURES AS THEY SHOW THE CONDITION PRETTY WELL. IGNITION SWITCH IS BAD. HAS PUSH BUTTON AND A TOGGLE SWITCH. I CAN HELP LOAD ON A TRAILER. I WILL SHIP BUT BUYER WILL HAVE TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS! I MIGHT PART OUT. THESE ARE SELLING FOR $40-$50K RESTORED, I AM ASKING MUCH LESS THAN THAT. DON'T BE SHY, MAKE AN OFFER. EMAIL OR CALL ME WITH QUESTIONS AND I WILL ASK DAD. THANK YOU, DON 570 956 3338.
