Looks better than some.
By the message on the back, I guess they have a guillotine in the top box. :D
 
Some rather 'Sniffy' comments frankly....

So it's a transit.... And they fitted a raised roof over the bit that required higher head room.... (I've yet to see a full length raised roof for LWB/XLWB Transit)

And used the remainder of the roof for storage.... (seen the same configuration on many shorter wheelbase VWs)

Frankly IF it suits them.... Then what the hell....
And frankly IF it doesn't.... Then so what it's THEIRS....

Thought this was a wild camping forum NOT who's got the best looking camper/moho etc.

You know I’m only joking seems that’s getting harder round here. I would be the last person to judge someones van. Good on him it’s better than my first and the next one too and the biggest heap is the one I spent all the money on.
 
i wish i'd taken more pics of vans i made for me and others . even i laugh looking back ,some right monsters - but they did the job ,and raising the roof ,with all the kids ,was always a priority,whether it was a molycfoft , a box to form a luton ,or sticking the top half of something else on top . when all us young ,skint ,would-be travellers realised we could drive anything legally we were off ! buying old buses , fire tenders , ambos ,those old Matadors ,and changing the bodies willy-nilly . it was great ! and if you could get a showmans licence ,then no more tax and you could pull TWO trailers ! i knew one small girl who had a massive Volvo tractor unit ,pulling 2 old showman's wagons ,one with a full size bath , both had AGAs . making chassis longer and putting caravans on flatbeds ,it was great times .
