"1995 Volkswagen Eurovan Camper
Overlanding is all the rage! �It's a modern twist on camping that involves converting regular transporters into self-sustaining ""homes on wheels"" allowing adventurers to spend extended periods of time on the road. �Roots to conversions can be traced all the way back to 1950 when Volkswagen's Transporter served as the perfect platform to house a camper.
For consignment, a vehicle that is a more modern iteration of those early conversions; a 1995 Eurovan Camper with 98,072 title verified actual miles. �Grab the dog and some supplies get ready for some overnights at your favorite state park. �Known for their cavernous interiors and efficient use of space, Eurovans are notoriously fun to drive...even if you won't be winning any races with it. �Who needs to go fast when you're enjoying the roadside scenery Mother Nature provides in this van that has had a recent fuel pump and filter installed, a new battery, a new AC compressor and dryer, and a new serpentine belt...Camp on!!!
Exterior
Like Moby Dick, this long, narrow vessel is all white. �The paint shows nicely overall. �We noticed some rock chips on the front...no doubt from adventurous road trips. �The flush headlights have a modern, European vibe, (naturally), and the clear side markers add to the monochromatic look. �Typical camper vents, ports and connections break up the body lines and the extended pop-up cover adds a few inches to the roofline. �A matching cargo tub is mounted over the cab helping retain the van's overall boxy profile. �Accents of black are found in the rubber bumpers front and rear, the grille and cowl vent, as well as the door handles and side mirrors. �Windows are nothing short of panoramic and occupy most of the top third of the vehicle. �Plastic VW hubcaps hide the black steel wheels.
Interior
The airy space in the front seat is accentuated by the tall bucket seats and a lack of center console. �Instead, only the shifter and emergency brake handle occupy this space, making ingress to the camper section easy for the front occupants. �The gray dash is pretty standard VW here and the gauges are clear and readable, situated on top of a row of ""idiot lights"" for system status. �The covered galley area is behind the driver's seat and contains a stainless-steel sink and a two-top burner. �Under those conveniences, you'll find a refrigerator and a cupboard. �A bench seat with the same cloth material as the fronts has storage underneath and intersects the van, well within reach of the microwave oven which is tethered to the van with a nylon strap and buckle. �Above the ""center hall"" of the van is access to the elevated bed platform which is usable when the pop-up ""tent"" is up. �The canvas walls of the tent show some wear including a patch, areas of discoloration and places where dirt has been trapped. �The cap seal appears to be in good condition. �Behind the back seat is a platform that makes up half the lower bed...putting down the seats completes the sleeping quarters. �There's plenty of storage back here too so you can load up on supplies for your overland experience. �There's even a kitchen-style spray head in back for rinsing dishes and maybe even an outdoor shower! �Pleated drapery covers the back window, accordion-style.
Drivetrain
The engine is up front in this particular Volkswagen and it's a 2.5 liter inline 5-cylinder with electronic fuel injection and a 4-speed automatic transmission. �The van is front-wheel drive with power disc brakes up front and power drums in the rear.
Undercarriage
While we didn't see any wetness in terms of oil or grease, the underside is decidedly crispy. �Most thin metal, from the support straps to the muffler and certain body parts have significant rust. �Not invasive but not mere surface rust either. �There's heavy pitting on some parts underneath and it would benefit from some restoration. �Other areas do have surface rust but the frame and gas tank look good. �We note independent coil spring suspension all around to keep this camper a happy....well camper.
Drive-ability
The water-cooled I5 came to life with the turn of a key and after a smooth idle, we were off on our adventure! �Even with limited horsepower, the front wheels pull this van over our even terrain just fine and eventually work its way to a fine trot, humming along with a virtual studio apartment in the back. �Don't expect sportscar-like aerodynamics either, but the raked windshield of the Eurovan is a far cry from the plywood-straight wind screens of yesteryear's VW vans. �The four-speed shifted smoothly and the brakes did their job. �French Creek State Park is not far from our facility, and we were tempted to test out the accommodations, but opted to roll this camper van back in the hall.
This well-loved campervan is a giant step forward in your dream of overlanding. �With some TLC, this could be your E-ticket out of the rat race...at least on weekends. �This also seems ideal for young families, writers who need to escape, or field biologists looking for some respite while they monitor Greater Prairie-Chickens on the plains of Nebraska. �Or...really, any camping enthusiast. �And just know you'll join an active VW Van community that's there for support and encouragement.
