You can score a burro or scamp for a couple hundred, sometimes

The pointy roof popups don't have much headroom except in the center, they really need a gable over the bed, have seen them with a gable over the toilet, which I think is mandatory

Neighbor across the street aquired a hard sided popup since he likes camping(?) In bear country and the rangers won't allow tents.

Pending · 1995 Coleman Pop Up Camper
$1,000

Details
Condition
Used - Good
Sleeps 7. Clean. Brand new wheels and tires. Tows great, even behind a minivan. Pops up/down smoothly. Clean title in hand. Canvas is intact but the liner inside is flaking off in spots. Power runs interior lights and outlets. Includes owner's manual.

We've owned and used it for the past 10+ years, but largely as a big tent to keep rain and critters out. We haven't used the water pump/sink, the heater or the gas stove. Can't guarantee that they all work.

- Selling "As Is."
- $1,000 Firm
- Will sell to first to put cash in hand
- Cross Streets Crismon and Ocotillo in Queen Creek

Why wouldn't I want a complicated tent I can't tow with a sedan when it is over 110°?!

[I would have been tempted before we finally got a rental contract, but I am positive that I would have found something with hard sides and AC, or at least somewhere I could install one]

Seller's description
Selling as a project. It’s a no crank no start so you’ll likely need to take it home with a trailer or tow. I narrowed the reason for it not starting down to its spark/electronics but don’t really have the time or tools to dig in. It has 162k on the engine and frame. 5 speed manual. Clean title. Open to offers

Could I get this running faster than one of my current Civic coupes?!

Maybe! Those are in Show Low!
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...75612257184298

In theory, I could gut it, and convert it into a trailer I could tow with a sedan, but that seems like a waste.

Hopefully, it enjoys a better fate.

It only has 162,000 miles!

I won't be satisfied until I have 7 rides for one brother?!

There are some odds and ends I want to replace on Mom's car and I need to replace a door on Mom's because I backed into it with a Uhaul.

I guess that I needed to park on the street and help my brother chase my wife's cat.

It's the wrong blue, though!

Seller's description
I am the second owner. The car was driven mostly in Wyoming. I drove this car from Wyoming to Phoenix on March, 2024. This is nice car for someone interested in a project car. it's 6 speed manual and runs pretty fast. The spark plug in Cylinder 1 blew off. Therefore, we had to rethread the spark plug hole and install new spark plug and an O2 sensor. The A/C stopped working and I don't have time to fix what's wrong right now. I bought a new car because my wife can't drive manual shift. Therefore, I am selling this because I don't want to keep paying insurance and a parking spot. This runs well. But if you don't have any sense in mechanical know how this is not the car for you. Genuine inquiries only. message me for more information. The car is in fair condition and it is reflected in the price.

Eye, marred engine.

A Traverse sounds it was specifically designed to not move under its own power, but I am going to argue that pulling it with a sedan is right out, even though it doesn't have 3 rows, and if I am going to gut a Traverse and convert it into a camper, I want one with 3 rows like my sister owned!
