"Type B Motorhome
Commonly called van campers, Type B Motorhomes are built using automotive manufactured van or panel-truck shells. Van campers drive more like the family car, but offer the comforts and conveniences of home on the road."
If it starts as a Van, it's a Type B, doesn't matter what is done to the body.
"Type C Motorhomes are built on an automotive van frame (cut-away chassis) with a wider body section attached to the original cab section. Many Type C Motorhomes are easily recognizable by the over-the-cab area that is often an optional sleeping area. Amenities are similar to those in conventional motorhomes."
A so called B+ is just a marketing term started by LTV for a small Class C, although there are 35' Class/Type C's that the manufactures calls a B+. The difference with these is usually no cab over sleeper. So length has little to do with what a so called B+ is.
