I was thinking that it was some sort of second or third generation VW micro-bus,
kinda like there is a new VW bug. I based the style off of the microbus. I
wanted to have sliding doors, but the walls are too thick, so the microbus with

I'd seen someone else get a neat vent effect by layering those wedges, so I
thought that I would give it a shot, and it was alot easier than mounting wedges
and round slopes sideways like on the van.
