Eugene had one, or it used to be I think. I think he converted it to a Westfalia camper at some point. He is on the forum.

The Deluxe Microbus was obviously the most expensive configuration of early baywindow, so would have sold fewer than Kombis or panel vans, but they're not exactly rare. The sunroof was an expensive option so was not often ordered, which makes sunroof models that much harder to find.

The deluxe was the only baywindow bus that could be ordered with a sunroof in SA. In Germany you could even order a sunroof on a panel van if you wanted.
