I had some pics of both, I'll try to find them. Airbagged from the factory, it's pretty cool. -----Original Message----- From: sammie smith <bugcollections@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, Jan 13, 2011 3:24 pm Subject: [tcb] Re: Camper Hell, I would even like to see the Citroen.

To work on a nice stock example of one, to me, was really a treat. Same guy has a cool Citreon. He's not a show goer, keeps to himself. Wish he was, you guys would love his bus. -----Original Message----- From: sammie smith <bugcollections@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, Jan 13, 2011 2:13 pm Subject: [tcb] Re: Camper Panels were available without the side vents. Think there is an M code for it and there are some threads on the samba about it. That said; it is very unusual to see a panel witout the vents. --- On Thu, 1/13/11, ATX BUS <atx_bus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: ATX BUS <atx_bus@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [tcb] Re: Camper To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Thursday, January 13, 2011, 1:20 PM As far as I know, sportsmobiles were converted panels. But I can't say that with 100%. I agree that this looks like a kombi. However, I don't think a 67 panel wouldn't have the side vents. I don't know when that change came about.

This looks like a kombi that someone has partially installed a sportsmobile interior in. -----Original Message----- From: kelly dosch <kellydosch@xxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wed, Jan 12, 2011 6:57 pm Subject: [tcb] Re: Camper Oh Ok, I just read the rest of your letter, about the Sportsmobile. I had a looong day. I'm not quite firing on all four, but I'll see what I can find. --- On Wed, 1/12/11, atx <atx_bus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: atx <atx_bus@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [tcb] Camper To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Wednesday, January 12, 2011, 5:57 PM Any body on the list know there split bus camper conversions? There is a good break down on theSamba but it isn't complete on some of the lower volume conversions. Here is a classified ad. Kinda wonder why the seller thinks this is a sportsmobile?? http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1079430 Jeff sent via iPhone
