Apologies if this is a pea-roast... Found them here - www.vintagevan.com/H-Van stylee!  H-Van in a camper stylee!  Dub stylee!  Part of me wants to hate them, but most of me says "You know you want one, they're ridiculous but cool, so accept it and give in" Finally, a modified pick-up type affair...  |

The brown camper looks alright! Pastiche stuff like this is always let down by the doors, and window lines. The blue version has too many obviously modern bits, like the door handles, chunky plastic mirrors, etc.
I'd happily own and drive either of the brown ones.. but not the others. These silly retro pastiche efforts tend to look better when you cant really identify the vehicle underneath, and it isn't obvious what car it is ripping off.

hey i just posted that brown one in the Kei car thread!!!!
its all good though, i kept meaning to go to the site, cuz i saw it on the brown ones window banner. pretty expensive panels it seems. the first blue one adds up to over USD$2000!

Not something I'd go for I'm afraid, wouldn't mind a real H Van though.
