Please point to an authoritative source. I've already cited http://www.dualport.com/vanagon/data.html , which appears to be an accurate reproduction of the VW spec sheet.

>the poptop camper WITH the kitchen was called a Camper GL

The spec sheet says "VANAGON, VANAGON GL, VW CAMPER." No mention of a "Camper GL."

The Camper had a poptop and a kitchen. Apparently, the Vanagon the OP mentioned doesn't exist. :-)

Also, they didn't call it a "bus" or a "poptop," so please be consistent in your pedantry.
