'CanterBerry' Camper? - Who did my conversion?

Post by purplechugster »

The van is just being tidied up, before it goes on sale for the next owner *weep*
But it cant come to Sydney with me :(

Anyway, three years ago as a naive camper virgin, I bought the van and didnt find out about the conversion... three years later and I still dont know, and now Ive painted/changed every bit on it its a bit hard to tell.

The only clue is the words (underneath the purple paint, but still readable) "CanterBerry Camper" on the hi-top. Google doesnt give me any clues... Any ideas?

There used to be a firm of converters called Canterbury Pitt that did conversions on Splits and early bays, but I think they went out of business many years ago.

Hmmm, definitely says 'CanterBerry' (sic. Thats not a typo).
It might just be a sticker from a dealer, I suppose... I'll post up some photos later and see whether that helps? :?

The interior looks like the Reimo furniture system, but this was used by many converters so doesn't help much.
The high top is a popular pattern - don't know what make it is but there seem to be a lot them about.

Looks like the EMC town and Country conversion, Mine has the same top and very similar interior only my zig unit is in a different place. On the rear of my top it has the EMC logo.
The conversion is quite rare, only saw a couple at Vanfest.
