Niesmann & Bischoff Conversions

In the continuous search the web, I came across this German manufacturer, specialized in living cells large.The current name is Niesmann-Bischoff and is interesting to visit the company’s website that offers a free consultation archive of brochures of full production, since 1981. In the 80s and 90s was just one of the mechanical chosen the Volkswagen LT 31, 35, 40 … Impress the size of the cell, with dimensions of 4.70 m.6.70!The largest model can comfortably accommodate 8 people … The height reaches m.3.20.The brochure presented to the side can be viewed and downloaded from the company’s website, just click on the image and you will be transferred immediately to the pdf file. There are other models of brochures of other vintages … good research.Personally I can not wait to meet a giant like that in my way of the holidays! You can admire the spaciousness in the split in the side.

In 1982 the brochure introduces the photographic images of the medium, both as a whole and within the same. Three models are available that clearly are classified according to length: Clou 570S, 570E and Clou Clou 670F. The 570S (S = Sofa) favored the living area with a large “living room” and 5 beds: the Clou 570E (E = Etagenbetten) favored the beds with a bunk bed fixed for a total of 6 people; the 670F (F = Familie) pointed on the hospitality of well 8 people … Different configurations were based on the different arrangement of the kitchen and bathroom. Ranged, for this, the positioning of the entrance door to the living quarters.

In truth, the one you see on the side is not the cover of the brochure but the second page. I could not enter a brochure with a camper on the Fiat … The mechanics are available to Italian and German with Mercedes and Volkswagen: the latter represented the LT 50! Introduces a new model, the Clou 670P, where P stands for Pärchen (couples in German). For the first time we are dealing with a medium that has two full size beds, one in the attic above the cab, the other in the queue plus three beds obtainable from the dinette and sofa.
