Brings back memories.....Buddy of mine and I drove his 1959 VW camper van from SoCal to Fla to scuba dive after grad HS in 1967, just before going into the service of Uncle Sam.....Notice the 2nd picture, the windows opened like that on the van we drove...Got so hot in TX/Fla we drove for many miles with the windows propped open.....
That van would do about 65 top speed, as I remember the HP was about 36.....The brakes were so poor you had to think waaaay ahead in order to stop safely....We listened to the music of the 60's all across the USA and back...cool trip and fond memories........
Great picture...Thanks.....
