No, the holes are in the window surround on the bus. You screw through the bus metalwork into the slot on the Westy window.

They are screwed through the holes in the window surround into a grooved tapered slot along the inside of the westy window. You can drill holes to match in your window surround, if you ever go back to a fixed window the seal covers the holes. The seal is just there to tidy up the opening.

As I messaged you earlier, this advert was placed in 2009. The doors are long gone.

It wraps under the chassis

I've got some fly screen and insert spare. I bought them off @aogrady on here. I'm not sure he's still around or sells this anymore.

I had '59 split back in 1985-88, but always had a bay since 1984.

Project buses, I know of a few splits and bays all with patina and minimal rust.

Make sure the rocker covers are actually flat, bend the bail arms to get a little more tension, and buy some thicker gaskets from here. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/314744237013?_nkw=air+cooled&itmmeta=01J5GW9C7ETCJ0HP68WVJ7KND0&hash=item494837ebd5:g:KFkAAOSwGNxa~gSN

Hello Steve, and welcome to the forum. Nice looking bus there.

Tbh, I wouldn't be happy running it like that, I would rather the stud threads show like your first pic.

It looks like somebody's started and then decided it's too much work, I'd dispute the original paint claim as well. If you're willing to take on a load of work and invest quite a lot of money in it then go for it.

Thanks mate. I was a bit disappointed I couldn't catch up with you, Penny and the rest of the gang this year.

Hello Greg, welcome to the forum.

Sounds like the timing's not advancing to me. What distributor do you have?

The original owners of Dormobile were charged with fraud, they destroyed all records before being arrested. The current owners only have records from the time they bought the name and designs. Have you tried Woolies Trim? https://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/

Thanks Mike, I'm pleased with it. Just a couple of little issues to sort then it's ready to go. Although earlier this year I could've set light to it. Waiting on Waboo to start the interior next.

Today was a good day. Reunited with some buddies from Blake's yard. If you're after a project bus, hit me up.

The view’s quite pleasant down here.

Not a good start to the day's proceedings. Definitely got oil pressure. 😂 That's what happens on start up when you don't fit a diesel oil filter. Took over an hour to clean the oil out of the engine bay, it even covered the battery. Anyway, rear tinware, valance and engine hatch fitted...

I just slid mine out carefully after releasing the front of the cover.
