Thomas, I don't know if there is an official christening....my kids and I just started referring to my van as Hidalgo after seeing the movie of the same name....about the indefatigable, independent and intelligent wild mustang horse, who could go anywhere and never quit! The name seems to fit. Cheers, Anthony '89 Syncro GL (Hidalgo)

I have started this process by adding the swivel seat to the passenger side. What I would like to do is add the shelf that runs over the sink and stove in the full camper models. Does anybody have pictures of this shelf that they could share? I’m looking for dimensions and how the track for the curtains is located.

Also – it seems to me like you guys all have attachments to these things that is only rivaled by old Harley riders – I have a ’71 Electroglide myself so I understand – and I’m wondering if there is a process used for christening your ride. I have seen vans and busses called Horst, Matilda, Blue, Emma and other names and I’m curious.

Thanks
