The idea on this one is that in countries where driving on the left is normal,
the parking curb side sliding door is on the left side.  So you take one of
those doors and the door frame, then you weld it onto the other side of a
Westy in a country where driving on the right is the norm.  The cool thing on
this conversion is that the two sliding doors on the right side share the same
exterior track.  The front door slides back to open.  The back door slides
forward to open.  So they can't both be fully open at the same time.

This rear space can have a step down floor so you can stand with the top
down.  This lounge can have seating for two with their backs toward the left
side, and a TV/computer display/audio system is on the door side.  Very
interesting huh?
