They've actually done a retro Microbus design. They thought of doing it, but later decided to drop it. There are pics and threads all over about it.

As for the Routan, that one would be more difficult. Keep in mind, the Routan is a Dodge Caravan. VW just adds their touches to it. I would think it's a bit more difficult to make a completely retro design out of a vehicle who's platform you don't even own.
