Since the hightop conversions are built to a specific size and shape, you would have to find an original 60s top to put on a 60s van.
While they do turn up from time to time in yards, it's not something that is commonly removed and saved, and shipping from outside driving distance would be very high (pun intended)!
If you want a hightop camper, my suggestion is to search for just that rather than get a van then look for the top to install. It could happen, but you are much more likely to find all of it together easier.
