History Van sold new in Clovis, CA and shipped directly to SMB West in 1995. Original owners in San Francisco kept for 10 years, then sold to second owners in Ukiah, CA. We flew up in July 2014 to pick it up/drive it back to SoCal and become its third proprietors.
Exterior
Everything is cooler with a stripe on it.

Interior
"Aquamarine Dream" --- original 1995 Sportsmobile RB30 teal velour / woodgrain buildout. (Rustic Cabin Decor that looks *so wrong* when you're parked anywhere in Orange County....and yet *so right* when you're up camping in the mountains.)

Wheels, Tires, & Suspension
