Shouldn't be very complicated to add the Wolfy stuff since all the Vanagons
are essentially the same big metal boxes with different stuff in them.  Find
somebody with a van like you want and study it.  Easiest way to do the table
would be to find a Weekender/Multivan/Wolfsburg that has been retired to a
boneyard and scrounge the whole side panel and table intact.  The curtains
are pretty simplistic -- most of them are suspended on wires that are screwed
into the bulkhead on either side of the windows. DIY isn't too hard and Go
Westy (gowesty.com) lists a Vanagon Retrofit Curtain Set in their catalog for
$200.

<< I'm in the market for a Wolfsburg, but am also considering late GL's as an
alternative.  How difficult would it be to add some of the Wolfy items,
particularly the table (I'd remove center seats) and curtains to a GL? Cost?
Parts availability?

Or I'd be up to fabricating my own - so I'd be interested in some
ideas/tips.  I'm sure rigging some curtains couldn't be too hard, but I also
want to keep things clean.  Table seems a bit more complicated...

Thanks for any info. >>
