ive seen the topics about customizing your own bed up top on a 73' style poptop, as well as the stock non US version of a poptop bed in a 73' style bus that pops open in the back.

but I have a 74' that pops from the front, and i want to take the fold down bed from, and make it fit into a 73' to replace the childs cot.

has anybody done this before? and any help appreciated.
-thanks!!!

your bus is 74 feet long? Shocked that's crazy! my '75 westy isn't nearly as long as that. good for you! Wink

Also might want to look at the Westfalia "Continental" (not VW-imported to U.S.).
