Anyone have one of these? Was it a Westfalia option or M-code option ?

Looks like a '63 US Campmobile kit: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/lit/1963bus_getawaycar.php I don't know much about them, I believe they were dealer installed. My '61 has a '62 Campmobile kit installed, you can read about them in the '62-'63 literature section.

I'm pretty sure a friend of mine had one for sale a few years back. I'll see if I can find the pictures.
