MY plan it to trailer it and permently put it up on blocks maybe on the front lawn. Or the R.V. shop I work at was started in 1963. Would make a great advertising piece.

Im not sure how much do you think any one would pay for it? The scrap yards want all wood removed before they will accept a trailer.

dualquadpete · BLACKSTOCK, ONT

Looks like it's been "sitting" for awhile at that spot!!! Whats the undercarrage like & the "BIG" question is "HOW THE HELL DO YOU MOVE IT"???? & will it break in 1/2 when you try????

Sacotu · COBOURG, ONT

i'd do it even if you had to put it on a newer truck frame.

Gearhead · ELORA, ONT

That is freaking awesome!! I wouldnt want to drive it even if it was in good shape (side visibility & questionable suspension)
It looks great inside, especially for vintage - like new

workin class · FINCH, ONT

Its got MY vintage camper and car addiction all in one. I want to move into it in the summer. Wife's fine with me living out back.

2inchestoolow · CLARINGTON, ONTARIO

That's pretty cool Pete. Looks surprisingly clean inside.

Last spring at a campground in Gravenhurst there was an early 60's pickup RV...all originial like it had been transported in time. Good ones are probably like hens teeth by now.

Jazz · THUNDER BAY, ONT

For $100 the seller just wants it out of the yard. It would make an excellent guest house at home or at the camp. They always look better in the picture,,,could be a crapload of mould brewing in the walls and ceiling. Make sure you post some pics of the underside when you get it home,,I'm hoping you just add gas and drive it home!

sasquatch · NORTH BAY, ONT

Man, that thing is a tank!! Must have lengthened the frame or there is a lot of overhang out the back.

Still,, quite a project!!

That is super awesome, a friend of mine just got a '57 this summer. Got a rebuilt engine in it now, he hopes to have it ready for the Syracuse nat's next summer.

Here's some pics, those are kewl.

Those are factory, very few around, grab it!

Rare Vintage 1963 Cadillac Camper Cruiser Motor Home Sedan de Ville, hearse/ambulance chassis by Superior Coach

Looking for a new homeowner with the skills and passion to perk her back up. Obvious hunting theme.

workin class · FINCH, ONT

it was in barn storage just put out this summer. She is looking for the right person for her beloved old camper. Money is not the issue and it is a factory built unit.

Gazoo · BADEN, ONT

The hub caps are worth the asking price , LOL.

Real cool must be hard to drive with that side window. Great for the Out Laws though.

That's what I was thinking.

You would need three co-pilots to tell you if there were cars on either side, and one for reversing, lol.

I also agree that they perhaps dug a trench to keep it low to the ground and keep the draft out of the underside when the relatives were staying over

As a camper nut I love the car/ camper. It looks pretty dry inside so storing it inside has really preserved it. Can't wait to see it on the road or?? Claton is not far from our place.

There was a car/ camper for sale at the Odessacarshow/ fleamarket this year, can't remember what GM car was used.

sasquatch · NORTH BAY, ONT

Man there is a pile of work and $$ building one of those!!

Pretty unique and kinda slick designing.

The 57 is nice , a bit shorter, easier to park.

maybe I'm wrrrrong.. maybe they dug a trench to back it in to get it so low

Sounds like a Mike Myers movie....."I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy"

Hope you get it Pete

workin class · FINCH, ONT

Some of the newer A class motor homes are just as bad when it comes to side views and blind spots.

Gearhead · ELORA, ONT

so, did anything come of this?

workin class · FINCH, ONT

still waiting to see if I'm worthy of owning it. The owner called me and is conducting interviews to who she will allow to buy it. Kind of puts a downer to it as she is looking for the most deserving new owner? I just shook my head. 10 year R.V. TECH 3 year R.V. collage training propane license and 30 years in the old car hobby. I may not be worthy oh well.

Adslow65 · LINDSAY, ONT

If you aren't worthy, who the hell is??? lol

Lil John · UDORA, ONT

My money's on you man. John

workin class · FINCH, ONT

we will see wouldn't be the first one to get away to a smooth talker only to see it for sale again in a week or two.

workin class · FINCH, ONT

she sold it to another thats why Im a LOSER.

123pugsy · MARKHAM, ONT

That's a shame............

poncho62 · ADMINISTRATOR

Too bad Pete...That would have made a great losers clubhouse...

Lightspeed Mike · BELLEVILLE, ONT

That's to bad Pete. It would have been a really cool cruiser for you and the family.

427CARL · CLINTON, ONT

Sorry you missed out cry probably a family member or neighbor hmm

-------------------------------

ARE YOU SURE it was able to drive it ? disbelief It really looks like it was sunk down in a hole since about 1960 hmm

workin class · FINCH, ONT

**** happens she would not give out her address until she completed her interviews. I only go by what I was told. If anyone sees this thing let me know. She wont say who she sold it to. All hush hush top secret you know. She seemed like a strange lady any ways.

poncho62 · ADMINISTRATOR

Probably scared of internet scammers.....Funny, the ad is still on Kijiji

Gearhead · ELORA, ONT

That sucks. Something seems odd about it. Maybe a whack job?
