GROWL!!!!

There is a Weekender which is NOT a half assed Westy.  It is a different 
purpose vehicle.  Great for overnights or picnics.  Not meant for 
vacation.  The Weekender is built on the regular body MV seven 
passenger.

What you saw was either a Westfalia Camper (if older) or a Winnebago 
Camper (if newer).  The Winnie conversion is built on an extended body 
panel/kombi type.  Except I think it has more than a single rear window...

Now show me a Westafalia Camper that seats seven.  Get the one you need....
