This are kind of a grey areas but here goes:

Sundial Campers did coversions on old split window busses, don't know if
they offered a pop top though.

Have seen photocopies of a company manufacturing the Douglas Super Top and
Chimo HighTops (those giant fibreglass things that bolt on to the top of
the bus basically doubles the height of the van)
