Other than access to the rear storage compartment (think shell on a pickup), nothing - nothing at all. Quite an interesting conversion, and something I’ve never seen before in my 36 years of following and admiring the VW T3.

Having owned a Rabbit pickup, I don’t want another pickup again, unless it’s a single-cab T3, but that’s only if I have a need for a pickup bed. For my uses, a van just works better.

It’s a single cab pickup with what I believe to be a van body grafted onto the top. I have never seen this before, but this means that the only access is through the back hatch which can be a pain if you have to get something out of the front of the bed. I experienced this with a shell on my Rabbit pickup and found it to be a hassle I didn’t need.

After little more research, and some possible bad translations, it seems that this vehicle may have been built as a hearse. Another variant of the T3 that I have never seen before but makes total sense.

Interesting! I saw a really nice 16” Syncro today. They always seem to have Alaska or Colorado etc..plates.

Although not a Syncro, there’s a place in Hawaii, Maui I think, were you can actually rent a Westfalia. I’d do it, even if I was staying in a hotel. It has to be a step up from the last car I rented there, a Sebring convertible...

Yeah I lived in Hawaii half my life, Mustang and Sebring convertibles just say tourist to me. I can’t see one here in the mainland and think it’s a car I want to drive haha.
