Sure.ffMake a box that slides out to rear with drop down legs to support box
when out past back of van say two feet. In box cooking stuff like two burner
stove, dishes etc. than when not needed leave slide all the way out and
leave in garage
Than with rear door up you also make canvas sides that you drop down so your
protect from wind and rain
for box look at how tear drop trailer kitchen look

Subject: Custom dash topper and cabinets


Has anybody constructed a wood (or other) dash topper?  I've seen a few
pictures but they've been short on details.  I think I might tackle this
during the winter and would like to see some more pics or even better plans!



Secondly I have an 86 Westy and was thinking of making a small portable
cabinet to put behind the passengers seat.  Maybe put an audio amp and a
pair of speakers in, the top would I want to put a little area for my
portable stove (I don't use the westy stove....  I know I know), some drop
leaf side tables.  The idea would be to have a little kitchenette to pull
out at camp to use for cooking, playing some tunes, etc.  Any thoughts?
