1977 Dodge B200 Tradesman Camper Van With VW Riviera Pop Top Conversion Please read entire add before asking questions!! Meet “Flo” A uniquely charming camper van that turns heads everywhere she goes. The Volkswagen Riviera pop top conversion makes this van one of a kind. It provides 6’5” of clearance, which is great for us taller folks. It has a second 45x72” slide out bed and all the canvas was replaced by GoWesty in 2020. Not only is she the cutest lady in the fleet, she runs strong and true. In the 5 years I’ve had her she has never once broken down on me. PLUS…(this is huge) the parts for this van are super cheap and easy to find. Unlike most VW vans where it’s getting harder and harder to find parts at all. Here’s a list of all the mechanical upgrades I recently made. - New water pump - New Alternator - Rebuilt radiator - New steering idler arms - New thermostat - New valve cover gaskets - Brake job with new master cylinder Here’s a list/description of the relevant features - Motor is 360 cubic inch, 5.6 liter, V8. 29,991 miles on the odometer Automatic transmission - Body is in excellent condition due to spending most of its life in the desert. I built a custom structure for her after I got her. - Paint job is 5 years old - Tires replace in 2017 - New pop top canvas by GoWesty - Two beds. Lower bed is 58x68” Upper slide out bed is 45x72” - Potable and grey water tanks - Shurflo water pump which feeds the kitchen sink and an out hose bib. - 200ah Renergy deep cycle battery. There’s an isolator attached to the cars battery which charges the RV battery while driving. The RV battery also charges when the van is hooked up to 120v sure power. - 120v plugs throughout the interior as well as 12v USB ports - 2 way 12v or 120v slide out fridge that tucks nicely under the bed. - 2 burner Suburban co. Gas range - On board propane tank feeds the gas range and has an additional port behind the passenger seat that can hook up to a portable heater. - Butcher block counter top and lots of cabinets for storage. …honestly too many things to list The van is a 1977 so like all old vehicles, there are little things that need to be maintained. That’s the cost of owning vintage vehicles. Some of the items that were on my list to address… Some of the weather stripping in the doors was aftermarket and should be redone. Makes a couple of the doors harder to close and should be adjusted. There is one spot on the driver’s side where the paint is peeling a bit. But most of the body is in great shape. I have new pop out windows to install in the doors but haven’t gotten around to it. They come with the van. Ultimately, the van is being sold “as is”. It has been super fun to own and provided our family with years of great memories. If you don’t like to tinker, then a vintage camper van probably isn’t for you. But if you don’t have 120k to spend on a sprinter van, and you like cool, vintage pieces of Americana… Flo might be just what you are looking for.
