I did this with the rear section of a Vanagon so that I could mock up
engine conversions.  The floor was cut right where the rear of the
sliding door would be and a radiator mounted there.   Tracks
quite well.  Really if I were to do this, I would use a single cab
bed.  

This will be used for my up coming body lift
project as it is easier to turn this upside down and attach all the bits
that way than monkeying with a van in the garage and trial fitting
something one hundred times.
