That was the one on Craig's List outside of Detroit, isn't it? Was on Craig's List for many months. I live in the San Francisco Bay area. Really wanted to go get it. But, the ad & photos appeared as if it wasn't road worthy. Good on ya' for restoring it, bud. Thanks for posting.
That was the one, Couldn't hardly get it on the trailer, it was missing so badly. Carb a mess, distributor wouldn't advance, Universal clunking, it was ugly. Went thru everything. Guy who bought it, flew on out and drove it home to Washington from my place in the midwest. I also have a A108 family wagon, same ride, 318, auto (fixed FG hardtop) and a tad longer also made by Travco, and had to get rid of one to keep the project going. Really liked that ride though. Thanks for the good words.
Nice to see another Camp Wagon. I have a '65. Are your fresh water tanks still on the van? If so could I get a pic of what they look like? Mine are MIA. Also, Travco did not do Camp Wagons. It was Travel Equipment Corporation (TEC).
Thanks for the info, but I thought Travco was the acronym for Travel equipment corporation. Trav co. Anyway, I have the water tanks. I saved them for my "Family Wagon. They're just glorified jerry jugs. One of each for fresh and gray I think. Your welcome to any pics I can help you out with.
I thought the same at first too. Travco and TEC were different companies though. The Family Wagon is made by Travco, Camp Wagon by TEC. Are the water tanks mounted under the floor, externally? I'd love a pic if you could provide one.
Hey, thanks for the info. I truly thought both were the same. I still have the original water tanks, they were external (probably 2.5 gal) One for fresh, the other for the gray. One drained, one siphoned. Not a lot of tech there, but easy to maintain :). Probably going to use them on the Family wagon which is missing the sink/kitchen and I'll have one built. I'll see if I can't dig up a pic somewhere as the camp wagon was sold, not sure how I'll get it to you.
Congratulations
VERY NICE LOOKING THESE TYPE OF VANS ARE EXTREMELY RARE NOW DAYS
beautiful vehicle, love the black and mag wheels.
Thanks. Black and chrome, it's a good combo.
Wheels are Appliance Steel Spokes, popular in the 80's.
sweet van! , you should do a video of the inside with the top closed to see what head room is like without it being up.
Thanks, but she's gone, but the guy who bought her is pretty active on the vintage dodge van site. He'll probably post some pics down the line.

very cool
Thanks man, it was a nice ride.
what was the company you mentioned that custom makes the doglegs?
That engine looked like a 225 slant six to me but still a good engine
Hey Robert, I'm not sure how you get a slant 6 out of a V-8 318, but, I assure you, it's a 318. Your right, both are great motors.
@@cptglen hahaha one valve cover. Four runner intake off to side. That’s a slant six.
@@ninjapumkin It is a V8 The camera hides the other valve cover.
@@ninjapumkin count the wires coming off the distributor, basic math.
still for sale?
what's the name of the company that has the rockers?
Sportsman Special. I think it was the dressed up version of the Dodge a100. Chrome trim etc.
