Tom, I happen to have a picture of 3 (three) vanagons made into a truck and trailer. One D'cab to pull, and two vans spliced together into one trailer, by cutting both at the rear of the front doors. Some guy built this one here in Norway, the car was featured in the Norwegian Dealer organizations customer magazine. He used a 2" ball hitch in the middle of the bed, and removed the gates. There are no information about the D'cab used for pulling this trailer. I've briefly seen it once (met it at a highway), it was quite long!

It would be best if someone could put it up on a website, that way I don't have to mail it to everybody who wants it. Anybody got some free space? Contact me!
