Do you guys know anything about this? The weird interior layout and solid wood cabinets leads me to believe it's a home made conversion, but where did the top come from?

You sure about that? Doesn't look like it to me unless it's some sort of rare version. |

Is that the high top you are looking to install on your Devon? |
I wish. I'm looking for a tall high top but my roof leaks so horribly now, I may need to settle for whatever comes up for sale until I can make a top myself. There is one in OK I've been eyeing up but there are no transport companies I've found willing to move it. I might end up just pulling the pop top portion off, leaving the base and using a sheet of plexi over it so long as the hole is under 4'x8'. It would be a pretty enjoyable temporary sunroof. |

It's not an AW, not sure what it is to be honest, here's another one from the hightop thread (amazing there's anything there with all the dead photo links, grrr...)

Did Sportsmobile ever make a hightop?, that rack on the back looks like thiers.
The interior looks like someones home built craftyness. _________________ Rust NEVER sleeps and stock never goes out of style.
Please don't PM technical questions, ask your problem in public so everyone can play along. If you think it's too stupid post it here
Stop dead photo links! Post your photos to The Samba Gallery!

hi, yes thats a pic of my old highroof camping posted above. I sold it a while ago but managed to recently buy another one exactly like it a couple months ago. The top has tags on it from Riviera Conversions in Georgia. _________________ OGJHC

I'm starting to get little wafts of bus stink coming from the north. Something about the unique scent of drivers seat padding when it's glued together with mouse piss and shit that really gets me going... and I'm smelling it! Oh yeah! Time to start loading up the equipment. |
