mk1 camper same width as a mk2?

Postby m1c » Wed Oct 01, 2008 9:51 am

Looking at the seating arrangements it seems like a mk1 camper has a bench that runs down either side of the body but a mk2 camper can have a bench down the side AND a picnic style bench... is there any reason why you couldnt knock up the same arrangement in a mk1 as a mk2?

couple of pics to help visualise

You could lay out inside of your camper how ever you wanted to.

My MK1 van originally had the bench seat down either side.

How it is now....

I have a mk1 house on my mk2.
Rebuild for the third time. The interior is from a campingwagon from 2003 that crashed.
