I like it!
I've been reading up on the D1 twin turbo ute conversion on here and I thought to myself: someone must have done that to a P38, right?
Well, not quite but close enough:

What's next? A trayback camper?

As crazy as it sounds, a dual cab version on a stretched chassis might even look good if it comes close to looking like this!

It looks like half a convertable job indeed. (yes I have found pics of those along the way as well) The reason I was looking into this is that I am beginning to realize that a P38 is small-ish on the inside for long overland travel, certainly since rooftop tent sleeping will not be possible or even desireable everywhere I go. I have been looking at those pop-top roofs for defenders, troopy's and G's but that is hard to make work I think or one of those camper conversions that are often done on traybacks (or chopped up 80's, defenders and so on).
I came across 1 single example of a bloke who had a go at it, and also wanted people to believe it's a L322

Not the prettiest job but food for thought!

Don't bother with a pop top roof. Get a shippshape rooftop tent or fibreglass pod type if you like comfort. Can move them to a new vehicle when you need.
The current trend of folding roof top tents are ****e if you ask me. A folded thin mattress is never going to come close to a full length jobbie.
