  1. Were viking pop tops ever fitted to panel van conversions?

    Im thinking it may be cheaper to sell my westy style pop top and fit a second hand viking roof and beds to mine
    Than converting my panel van to copy the westy structure
     
  2. Yes. Viking specialised in converting panel vans.
     
  3. Brilliant what the biggest one they did

    The roofs are a little how shall i put it bulbous maybe but i do love the amount of space up top
     
  4. Yep they did and the biggest was the super Viking, masses of space. My old van was a panel van.

  5. Cheers for the pics dude

    It looks like the same size hole in the same place as i allready have

    Thats made the desicion i want one do you have any idea how much they sell for second hand?
     
  6. Come over to the dark side Para! Normally you need to cut the roof to fit the Viking roof with all the viking bits but I never did with mine and it will go on there with a little thought!

    The big roof is known as the Spacemaker Super Six (unless you are Jonathon Ross)
     
  7. Oh yes and my cut-out is a standard Westy front hinge hole or sunroof size I believe!
     
  8. Wasent your bus a westy originally dicky dude?
     
  9. It was indeed!
     
  10. Ok any one want to swap a westy style roof for a big viking one?
     
  11. Actually if you do find someone your roof will fit on their van better than it fits on yours as they cut a bigger hole than really needed on the viking to fit the extractor hood and all the gubbins! (not me though I hasten to add as I likes mine! plenty of folk dont though!

  13. Ive had both and the Super 6 is taller. That said the slide out bit should be about do-able on the earlier roof. I thought about it but a super 6 came up!
     
  14. Do it. Super Viking are great - at TLB on the farm the dogs had the R&R bed so Zoe and I just slept in the roof with tons of space left over for bags and other assorted gubbins.
     
  15. I have a standard viking roof for sale for £150 dude. with new rubbers and hinges
     
  16. The best camper I have ever owned was a Viking!!! 8)
