Doesnt the chassis number tell you if its a deluxe model (starts with 24?)?
Will check the bible to see if theres any specific M-codes for certain parts of deluxe trim.
 
M521 is with chrome trim and sun visor with mirror 68-69 (without mirror 70-73) for model type 22.

Will read up more later - watching Kellys heroes ;)
 
Its starts with 232.
Hope its some aftermarket trim, then i can weld the holes and not bother with it :rocknroll:

Haaha funny smileys :innocent0006:

Its a kombi then, what do the numbers on the chassis plate say? post em up & we can decode them for you.
 
Check and double check. You could get a deluxe without the trim if you so wished. As with all the options you could choose "M Code delete" and leave it off. Basically you could have anything from the options list on any bus, but if you wanted a certain bus but didnt want something it already had you could have it without if that makes sence.

Its strange looking back on it now as a bus is no longer a tool for lots of people its just a toy.
Who would have thought you would see 21/23 window Sambas without a sunroof but you do.

If you like it keep it, if you dont, dont. :winking0060:

I see your stance on Cross dressers has mellowed then clyde, was expecting you to suggest torching it :lol:

I wasnt speaking for myself i was just saying if he likes it keep it if not get rid. I would keep the trim and torch the bus myself. :tongue0013:
