The tent hung from the hatch to a platform that unfolded and sat on two legs that rested on the ground. I belive this was a factory option?

OK now for the smallest camper on earth show...

I saw a FIAT 850 van when travelling once, if you've ever seen a FIAT 500 you get the picture. It had a rear hatch tent, mainly because the vehicle was too short to lie down in otherwise. A counter with stove, sink + cupboards was across the back of the front seats, and the rear seat folded forward for sleeping. The vehicle is about 4 feet wide outside and not much taller! You can carry them home under your arm if they break down. I would love to have one of these, it was like a kidsize Westy. tim s.
