[FC] 1961 Corvair Greenbrier camper accessories

[Lee Nyboer]

10 years ago I followed a Corvair Greenbrier camper off a freeway ramp in a Detroit suburb hoping to interest him in my folks car top camper tent and chromed tent ladder that had been hanging in my folks basement since 1966.  He bought them.  

It happens to all families sooner or later where you need to get rid of your parents home and all the stuff within.  My mom died last September having lived to be 103. Dad and her loved to camp and and with a limited budget and a yearn to travel, the camper minivan was very appealing to them. They bought a 61 Greenbrier with the camper package interior.  After the pots and pans flew out at them when they had to brake hard, the rear kitchen cupboards were removed and the interior became much simpler.  It also  made it easier to get to the engine.  My brother and I slept on the roof and my folks down below.  We had some very memorable trips in that van.  A trip around Lake Superior comes to mind where my dad would ask locals where the fishing was good and we would wind our way through back country roads to some small lake and spend the night then fish in the morning.
While cleaning out the basement, We found the original Pink and white Coleman camper stove, ice chest and drink cooler! The drink cooler's lid it cracked but the chest and stove are in decent shape for having sat in a basement for 50 years. 

Coleman accessories such as a  #5402-731 Picnic Stove, a 7 gallon Coleman Cooler, a 1 gallon Coleman drink jug
I'm trying to reach camper owners who might need such items for their restoration project.  I have zero clue what they are worth and where to offer them for sale.  I'm hoping someone in this group will point me in the proper direction so they get to someone who would really appreciate them.
My folks camper did come to a rather fitting end some where around 1966.  They threw a belt in the Allegheny Mountains and the van gave up it's ghost in Greenbrier North Carolina.  They returned home to Detroit in a new Dodge Minivan which served them well for many years.
