I don't know how rare they are really, but mine doesn't have the stove or
sink or fridge, and has the full-size rear bench and subsequently a larger
downstairs bed.  I dig the extra room.

I have been thinking that maybe a sink/icebox unit out of an early '70's
Westy would be good for camping, maybe set it up so I could bolt it in
behind the passenger front seat temporarily...
