> We had the Gedak family, (Getaway), convert our bus. We bought a new 1979
> delivery bus and took it to them.

They did the complete conversion, raised roof, furnace, stove, stereo, bed
etc.
My memory is that I paid 4500 dollars for the conversion.
It certainly was not westfalia quality but it served us well.
The resale was not strong when it came time to sell as people wanted the
Westfailia.
They had not been in business long when they did our conversion.
They were friendly and pleasant and had a small work space in Richond.
There was not enough business for them with VW's so they expanded
agrressively into converting domestic vans.
They were doing nicely until interest rates skyrocketed to 18 percent and I
believe debt was their demise.
They got creamed and went bust.
A outfit in Abbotsford bought the name and they do some conversions on a
small scale and much higher price.
On our long trip across Canada and USA we really liked the extra storage of
the high top.
A serviceable conversion but not close to Westfalia!
