1949 Chevrolet Kurbmaster Step Van Camper Conversion

This distinctive gem from Chevrolet's past is a 1949 Kurbmaster Step Van, tastefully converted into a camper in the 1970s. Originally manufactured by American LaFrance for use as a city transit bus, this aluminum-bodied vehicle has been painstakingly refurbished by its current owner, who acquired it in 2023 from Oyster Bay, New York. Upon arrival at its new home, the van was brought back to life with a fresh coat of paint on the exterior and new upholstery throughout the interior, along with meticulous refinishing of the cabinets and appliances. Even the classic 16-inch wheels were replaced for safety and style. Now available for purchase through Bring a Trailer, this unique piece of Chevrolet history stands ready to embark on its next adventure, bidding farewell to its roots in the United States while embracing a new chapter full of possibilities.
