if you lived in ohio just in view off of a highway, this guy has a WHOLE lot full of 68′ Bus’s and the kick ass 80′s EuroVans they look beat down but they are all golden to me either way i would try your local newspaper, and i would post an ( want car ad ) and then go to http://www.autoextra.com, http://www.autotrader.com, http://www.automart.com, and http://www.cars.com, and give it a search, if your not concerned with how far away the car is do a search for 100 miles from your zip, interesting results hmm ?
First, please realize you are taking on a lifestyle, not just a nostalgic old car. If so, happy camping!
Second, becareful about getting a “cheap” one. Often times, the cheap ones are the ones that turn out to be rust buckets or have bad engines or electrical challenges. If you really want cheap, you may have to be willing to roll up your sleeves and give it some elbow grease!
I bought my “hippie”van (1970 Westfalia pop top camper — I love it!!) from http://www.thesamba.com
It’s a great website- search the classifieds — you can narrow it down by type of vehicle or state, or both.
Also, try craigslist, but be willing to look in many different areas. There are several great places back east to find good buses.
Another great place to look is on ebay. Just ask a lot of questions.
If you’re up for a road trip, go to Arkansas. They have one of the largest VW salvage yards there you’ll ever see. But they also do project and restoration to get up and sold. You can check out their website at wayoutsalvage.com
Once you get your bus, try Go Westy for parts and what not to keep the camper parts of your new house on wheels functioning well.
