Hey all:

 Saw an ad in the local paper for an '80L Vanagon at a decent price so
 I went to check it out.  Turns out it's got some "camper" elements -
 icebox/sink/storage unit along the driver's side.  The owner bought
 the van from his neighbors when they moved and said he knew nothing
 about this stuff, and I don't either!  So:

      - The cargo-area carpet had slits in it to expose the
        middle seat rails.  Does this suggest it's an after-
        market conversion as opposed to an "official" conversion?
        Or is that how they came from the factory?

      - The sink seemed to have 2 faucets; one a kind of "goose-
        neck faucet with what I'm assuming is some sort of
        pump handle, and then a smaller faucet beside it.  What's
        that second faucet for?

      - Since the owner knew nothing about this stuff and I don't
        either, how do you test it?  There was an attachment outside
        for city water, and a power attachment.  Do you just plug
        everything in and see if it works?  Anything else anybody
        would suggest?

      - The third seat looked just like a regular third seat, but I
        didn't mess with it.  If this was a "factory" installation,
        should this third seat be this way?

 Thanks for any help.
