I think we've discussed this before. I found a similar kit from another company a while back but look what VTS sells now. If you want the vintage icebox look but must have refrigeration, and you've got big bucks just collecting dust in the vault, well go for it!

There must be some interest in the kit or VTS would not be advertising it. There are still people with sizeable amounts of discretionary income to spend on cool (pun intended) modifications to their original vintage campers...I just don't happen to be one of them.

Yes, vintagebruce , there is actually one detailed review with pics of someone's installation. I did a quick search and looked for other conversion kits and VTS actually has the cheapest. They are all from $700-$1000+. I was looking for this alternative when I was re-insulating my icebox and I decided to revisit the idea, only to remember why I abandoned it...$$$.
