Claude

Today saw the doubling of the membership of the Palomino Club with the inauguration of member number 2, Pippa, and her van, Claude. Claude has been recently modernised inside and now features delightful cream leather furnishings, but still is easily recognisable as a Palomino.

A Palomino T25 brochure

For your interest, I have scanned a brochure for a T25 VW Palomino camper. The interior is practically identical to the earlier Bay window Volkswagen Palomino.

Where can I buy a Palomino camper?

It's unusual to find a Palomino for sale, possibly because of their desirability, or the general tendency for VW campers to turn to rust. But at the time writing, there's an orange automatic one for sale at quality campers.

Or you could make me an offer I couldn't turn down.

Identifying the palomino

"How do I know if my camper is a palomino?" A question that I've not yet been asked, but if I ever am, this will be my answer.

Does it look like someone has taken a boat, overturned it, and stuck it on the roof of your van? Or does your Volkswagen have the word Palomino on the back? If the answer to either of these questions is YES, then you could very well have a Palomino camper. You lucky devil!

Welcome to the palomino club

This is the VW Palomino Club. Its purpose is to people with information about the Palomino camper conversion of Volkswagen's T2 and T25 vans. If you're very lucky, there might be pictures.
