He said he had an 84 Wolfy passenger van, a unique model and rare. Those
are unlike any other GL bed. They are full width wooden base Westy beds

Similar to the later Wolfy Poptop bed 85-87 only with a wooden face and
more storage room inside. The same type of hinge straps as all the
wooden base beds.
