This catalogue entry records a 1965 Volkswagen Type 2 Lola, Splitscreen Camper Van in white and black, a van and camper, from the 1960s.

The 1965 Volkswagen Type 2 Lola, Splitscreen Camper Van in white and black is filed under Classic, Van / Commercial and Motorhome / Camper, within the 1960s picture cars.

1960s on screen

A British street set in the sixties reads through its shopfronts and traffic together, rather than asking the featured car to explain the whole date. The decade covers changing fashions, so wardrobe references should match the story year instead of relying on a single idea of what the sixties looked like. Modern vehicles at the far end of a street can break a sixties view, making background control important even when the featured car stays parked.

Possible roles in a production

Interior scenes require an agreed view of the exact camper, since the category alone does not establish the layout or where performers can sit. A camper can support a holiday departure, with bags and the gathering of travellers explaining the trip before any road sequence needs to begin. A return from a job can begin with putting away equipment, letting a van support the scene through routine instead of a conspicuous vehicle entrance.
