What in the world is this camper? It is part Mercedes, part Vanagon. I ran across this bad boy at the BenzWorld forums, where forum user TRUKTOR posted pictures of this custom camper. The whole thing is one big, rugged, hack! Should it be called a Mercedagon or a Vanacedes? Click through for a few more pics.
If the A-Team were still in action today, they could be riding in this baby. I ran across this beauty today and it reminded me of the old 1980’s hit. There is plenty of room on the inside for Murdock to jump around, and Mr. T would love driving this bad boy.

Check out this hand painted Vanagon. Owned by couple named Bruno and Laura, this Westy is one of a kind. It appeared in an annual parade organized by the VW Club of El Salvador, the Caravana por el Día Mundial del Escarabajo (Caravan for the International Day of the Beetle). A quick trip to their website revealed more pictures of the painting process. Click through to see more.
I stumbled onto this Westy by accident. I noticed the awning first, but then the body kit caught my eye. I’ve never seen the custom kit around the middle of the van above the door handles. Nice. I don’t need to mention the high top, awning, custom paint and wheels do I?
What happens when you outgrow your Vanagon and you need an extra sleeper? If you are creative like Samba user Karol81, you create a Vanagon camper trailer. He took a donor Vanagon, sliced it up, and added a Westy interior. With paint to match an existing Syncro this trailer is a winner! The pictures speak for themselves so click through to see the rest.
This is some kind of modified single cab Vanagon work truck, but I have no idea what it is used for. It was listed along with this RV on eBay, but there is no description or indication what it is. Any guesses? Let me know in the comments.
