Subject:Eurovan Weekender Westfalia Conversion
From:C&S Gibbs. Alaska. USA.

Hi All,

I see the odd Eurovan *Westfalia* weekender cruising around Anchorage and I'm
always impressed with the great looking Westy poptop (unlike the Eurobago one
that never looks fitted properly).

Wouldn't it be cool if Ed Anderson (Adventurewagen) offered a conversion kit
for the Eurovan Weekender?  I'm thinking a *do-it-yourself* Westfalia-style
stove, sink and fridge all in a self assembly package.  After all the hardest
part of this project would be the design on paper and procurement of the
hardware (sink, stove, hinges, etc.).

It sounds as if Anderson has mastered the (real) Westy concept that we all
admire, maybe one of our vendors could asses and advise of the project
feasibility?

I presume the Weekender already has the Westy bed fitted, if so, that's one
major job (upholstery etc) out of the way!!!!!!

Best,
Chris Gibbs
