I'm sure you mean the company called "Sportsmobile", not Campmobile.
(Campmobile is what VW called their campers). Sportsmobile did camper
conversions in the '70's out of Indiana.  they did VW's as well as American
vans.  i've never seen a Vanagon Sportsmobile, tho.  The Sportsmobile tops
popped straight up, but had a tube metal style luggage rack in the front,
unlike the Westfalia's, and the ASI's fiberglass one.
