Classifind Cut: 1965 GMC Olson Kurb Side By Grumman Camper Conversion – Sold?
February 23, 2021 Update – We just confirmed the listing for this “Classifind” expired, so with no replacement found we’re assuming this ride “Sold?” While this one got away, please reach out either by email or call Rudy directly if you’d like to be informed when we come across something similar.
One of the positive trends coming out of this past year’s pandemic is consumers looking to get away from it all while having the ability to social distance. Not surprisingly, the recreational vehicle industry experienced a record year with production backlogs never seen before. Rather than wait your turn for a new look-alike RV that will immediately depreciate the moment your drive off the dealer lot, may we suggest this aluminum-bodied 1965 GMC Olsen Kurb Side by Grumman delivery truck originally listed on Craigslist in January 2021 in Malden, Massachusetts for $39,000 that’s been restored and converted into a limited use RV.
Reported to be completely rebuilt, rewired, repainted, and featuring a low-mileage small block Chevy powertrain, this rig appears to be a stylish alternative to getting away from it all, although it’s not clear from the description whether it has the bathroom and related hookups needed to truly “boondoggle.”
Here’s the seller’s description:
“Totally rebuild and ready to go 1956 Grumman camper with a 327 V8 Chevy with a 4 speed Muncie transmission only 38k on this engine. All mew wiring, lights, generator, propane hook up, wheels, body and paint job etc.“

Too many loose wires and bare pedals.
Frankencar–it looks cobbled together.
