The ASI was just a passenger van later modified to a Camper. The top
will go on another passenger van just fine. The hole in the roof is just
something cut out between the arches.

The quality of the ASI leaves a bit to be desired. The tops crack and
sag with time. They attach to the roof in a fairly Disney rodent way.
