    Default Interesting topper from Germany

    especially the second picture, look like a cabover popup camper shell.
    Is there any company here in NA making something similar?

    I think I would rather have a Flippac or Four Wheel Camper. It would be interesting to put this on something like a first gen 4Runner.

    I would really like to find something like this. Please somebody tell me they know of a place to get them here in NA.

    Hopefully it would be cheaper and lighter than a FWC. And for me it would be better than a flip-pac because it would still allow the roof to have a rack and basket, even kayaks could be carried on top.

    WOW, these pics are about 25 years old; Special Mobile offered these products in the mid 1980ies.
