just wondering if anyone has details on these high top campers, who made them? name of conversion? when and where produced
I have struggled to find any information as I don't know what to search for
Sopru made them for Australia and sold them through dealers. I only have a photo of a later one which is different and called a "Wanderer".
I read it on samba, so it must be correct.
Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!😂
awesome appreciate the info
nic named SNAPPER HEAD
definitely understand the 'snapper head' nick name
heres another pic
Love this lowie.
I looked long and hard at it when it was being sold late last year.
Glad its gone to a good home.
Sorry - different lowie snapper head - thought it was Phat bugs 68 that went for $3k last year - different colour but exactly the same roof. Plus Phat bugs one was a microbus - so I totally confused them.....

Woah!!..You're going nuts!...Whats the plan?..Have to catch up soon too!.Whats the roof like underneath?.
getting driveway done out the front in a few weeks, had to take roof off to get kombi out the back to free up space,, bit or rust on roof unfortunately. put my mates f truck on the back burner as still waiting on parts from the US, will try to get some work done on the roof before im back onto the Ffffy
Was wondering how you got it out the back..😂
Here are a couple of pics of my old mate Bob's high top camper unfortunately Bob and his wife are now living in "kombi heaven" but they did a lot of miles in the little girl together before they passed on.
Cool rig mate, love a good hightop!
If you could manage it I'd love to get some pictures of the roof cut and interior set up that it had in it?
This is my snapper panel
Hoping to give it a bit of an overhaul this summer and get the interior sorted, so chasing as much inspiration as possible!
Good luck with the build!
