Westy vanagons had swivels in them. Cool!  I just purchased a swivel cut
out of a westy and welded it in to my bus .It is great, but i'm yet to
fully utilize it- ie i haven't gone camping in it yet.  The swivel was 40$
and lots of list guys have them for sale. I only put one on the passanger
side and haven't made a decision on the drivers side yet- i may or may
not, depending on the extra height (about 1") and other mounting issues.
I may mount it but keep it lower by first removing the track, etc.

Email for more.
