Are you sure about this ?

I would think that propane approval would have been in place in 90.

Even in the case of the  first Eurovan Westies in 92 , which came over to
Canada with the Euro - fuel stove, they were converted to propane here after
the fact.
When I drove to Westfalia in Wiedenbrucke & had a chat , they told me they
actually sent a tech to Canada to  convert all 27 of the first vans to
propane, since no one here wanted that system.

i vote for it being a multivan, but I find your Canadian demi-Westy theory
intriguing.

Frank.

This might have been a Canadian model... what happens here is sometimes VW
was too late getting Approval from DOT & CSA on the Propane Tank
installation, so they just drop the stove and have a countertop with a sink
and the fridge just works on 12v & 120v... everything else is your normal
