this vintage and original 1977 Dodge B300 Camper Van by Coachmen
Industries. Made right here at Chrysler?s Fenton, Missouri assembly
plant in March 1977 then shipped to Middlebury, Indiana to Coachmen
Recreational Vehicles for a full camper van factory conversion.
Coachmen Industries was one of the worlds largest full-line
manufacturer of recreational vehicles in the 1970?s and still
produce RV?s today! This Coachmen was sold new at Niehaus Motor
Company in Burlington Iowa on 7/25/77 with 525 miles on the
odometer. The original family from North Liberty Iowa occasionally
used the the van over the next four decades and was then sold at
their estate sale on 8/19/2016 to the second family from Iowa City
with 80,500 miles on the odometer. The new owners did some major
refreshing of the van immediately as they wanted to use it on the
open road. Their first service was new wheels and tires, new CD
player, all new belts, new Kohler air element, new front and rear
heavy duty shocks, new air and oil filter, new coolant, new brake
calipers, new brake master cylinder, new side cab lights, new 4ft
antenna, service generator and wheel alignment for a cost of over
$3,000. In 2017 at 82,594 miles more service was performed such as
new fuel pump, idler pulley, freon and A/C service, new deep cycle
battery, replaced sink, faucet and fittings, new shower lines,
cleaned rooftop air unit, repair all water lines and flush tanks,
cleaned water heater, stove and furnace for a cost of over $1,700.
The camper van was always stored inside and is still finished in
its original white with Coachmen orange striping that is in overall
great original order. When new, Ziebart rust protection was applied
by the selling dealer. The body is straight and solid and the
chrome bumpers are in very good order. A set of new Goodyear
Wrangler HT radials, size LT225/75R16, at every corner, plus a
rear-mounted spare tire. All are mounted on 16x7 aluminum mag
wheels. The wheels are in very good order, as are the tires. The
original steel wheels and original hubcaps are also included. The
van has an 8,200 GVWR and a 127-inch wheelbase. A 360 CID V-8 4bbc
engine is under the hood (VIN code F) with power steering and power
front disc brakes. Backing up this motor is Chryslers famous
Torqueflite three-speed automatic transmission. Also included with
the correct Onan 2.7 AJ electric generator but needs to be rebuilt
due to a bad bearing. Inside of this Coachmen camper van are
practically-designed appointments, uniquely suited to the needs of
almost any active family. Room for a carpool of kids and a full
supply of groceries. Comfortable sleeping capacity for those
leisurely camping trips. Inside is overall original and in
excellent original shape, there are three captain?s chairs, and a
bench seat, all done in brown cloth with skirts and look great. The
original Coachmen gold shag carpet covers the floor. There?s also
an overhead sleeping bunk. The window treatments are polyester.
Behind the third captain?s chair and couch are a 12,000 BTU
furnace, Coleman air condition, 2.5 cuft mini refrigerator, a
microwave, a 12-inch television, shower stall, electric toilet,
sink, 19 gallon water tank, two-burner stove with oven and 32 point
LP tank. Dodge vans, particularly Tradesman vans from the 1971?1977
model years, were very popular as the basis for many custom vans
during the custom van craze that occurred during the mid- to late
1970s and early 1980s. Dodge capitalized on this craze, creating a
factory customization package called the ?Street Van? package. This
was advertised alongside the Lil' Red Express and Warlock trucks as
?Adult Toys.? The Street Van package consisted of a logo on the
passenger and driver's side door in lieu of the Tradesman logos,
chrome trim on the grille and windshield, simulated wood grain
inlays in the steering wheel horn cover and passenger side glare
shield, five-slot chrome wheels or white spoked ?off-road? type
wheels, chrome front and rear bumpers, chrome trim on the gauges,
smaller chrome side-view mirrors, patterns and plans to create
custom interiors, and membership in the ?Dodge Van Clan.? This
package was available from the 1976 model year until it was
discontinued in the early 1980s. Competition to this B300 in 1977
include conversions of Chevrolet?s G30, Ford?s E-350 and GMC?s
Vandura 3500 and Volkswagen?s Bus. This vintage and extremely hard
to find Coachmen Model Tee van has a lot of amenities for traveling
? visits to state parks, camping, hiking or even day trips. If
