not exactly the same thing, but semi-sorta-kinda-somewhat in the
neighborhood. which i've not seen actually done ...

there was a german guy who wrote a book about traveling around the
world in his 69 vw bus.
and strangely wanted to do it again.
so he was designing (in the back of that book) his next vehicle: yup,
a vanagon/T3.
with a slide-out.

he intended to take the passenger side 'wall', where the sliding door
would be (if it were in australia or the UK)
and make it into a slide-out, like you see on these big $$$$ RV's. he
intended/designed it to slide out only a couple of feet, just to move
the stove/sink/fridge/cabinets out so he could have the entire normal
width of the bus as 'floor'.
he had some pictures of some work he'd started, but i've never seen
the finished product.

anybody seen anything like that??

as to the seats, what about something for the Carat/Multivan jump
seats? just a sort of metal stand that they could be put into ...
