From our camper exhibit.

This is an amazing time capsule! It's never been used and has a very interesting history. It was built by legendary GM engineer Elias J Primo, he was given credit for the Corvette being made out of fiberglass! He had this camper built for his own family's person use once. It was finished and he stored it in an airplane hangar near a lake in Detroit. His plan was to remove it from the hangar and bring it to the nearby lake to enjoy some leisure time on occasion.

Vehicle Description

Vehicle Original VIN : HT6631




From our camper exhibit.

This is an amazing time capsule! It's never been used and has a very interesting history. It was built by legendary GM engineer Elias J Primo, he was given credit for the Corvette being made out of fiberglass! He had this camper built for his own family's person use once. It was finished and he stored it in an airplane hangar near a lake in Detroit. His plan was to remove it from the hangar and bring it to the nearby lake to enjoy some leisure time on occasion. Like many executives he was consumed with his work and never used the camper. It remained mostly unused in storage it's entire life. When Mr Primo was on his death bed he told his son in law about the camper, good thing he did because nobody knew it existed. We have a signed letter from the son in law verifying the story. It has been in our camper exhibit the last 11 years. We are reluctantly selling it because we don't have the room.

When I say it's a time capsule I mean it is original including the original museum quality antique accessories. The Preway gas stove looks new. The icebox refrigerator is amazing, it looks brand new! Original light fixtures, screen door, cushions etc. It has original China personally picked by Mr Primo. It's been part of our museum the last 11 years. It is documented with original title in Primos name, a letter from the son in law and picture of the hangar it was stored in.

This is a rare opportunity that will not come around again. It is worthy of any museum or it would make a great conversation piece in your collection or at any show. This is investment grade.

This item is from our museum display. We literally have thousands of the coolest vintage items on display that we have collected over many years. We have so many items that we are renting 4 warehouse units to store what doesn't fit on display in our museum. It is time to let some items go, reluctantly! Check the Museum Vault tab under inventory, items will be added regularly. These are hard to find, unique pieces. Each item is sold as-is. We can arrange shipping on any item to anywhere.

Financing is only available from us on the cars we sell. We apologize for the inconvenience.
