A local guy bought this camper from the original owners wife in December 2012, it was a complete unit that included a 1967 Ford F250 Camper Special that was purchased new at Fogg Motors, New Westminster, B.C.. The camper was apparently put on the truck in 1967 and never removed until recently. The original owner used it a few times a year for fishing trips, the pickup has 75000 original miles on it. The guy just wanted the pickup so he sold me the camper a couple days ago. I can't find a manufacturers name anywhere other than on the appliances, I am wondering if it is home made?

The camper has some nice features. The closet doors open up and provide privacy for changing clothes or using the porta-potti that has a swing down seat/platform in the closet on the left. The ends of the seating area pull out to form a wide bed. The ceiling vent has an electric fan. 3 burner stove with an oven that appears to have never been used. Propane fridge, heater and an electric water pump. There is also a lot of storage space. Robertson Head Screws are used throughout and the cabinet hinges/latches are more of a fancy type than basic.

That is a cool old camper. I like the side door and the large rear window. Sorry I can't help with an id.

Here are some pictures of the pickup and the custom rear bumper that allowed the tailgate to remain on the pickup when the camper was on it. Notice the side step on the right of the bumper to enter the side door on the camper.
