Title: Will a 1993 Westphalia pop top fit on a 2003 short wheel base Eurovan?
Post by: cian on November 27, 2016, 11:10:44 am

Looking to convert a 2003 Eurovan to a Westphalia.  I have a 1993 Westphalia and was going to do the AAN engine and standard transmission conversion but have since found a 2003 short wheel base Eurovan in great condition.  I am planning on installing the pop top on the 2003 and transferring all of the interior.  Has anyone done this and if so did you have any major issues?

The owner of this site has completed that conversion a good number of times already.

Ditto above, I'm about to embark on the same process - 01 Eurovan MV using a 1993 Weekender as the donor van.

I am hoping to be picking up a 93 Westy weekender this saturday to convert my 01 GLS also! It seems like Cole has started a coast to coast trend!

Yes. It can be done.

I've done many of them.

2 of those were GLS vans. I would much prefer to start with an MV. LOTS of work to fully convert the GLS interior correctly.
