Morning all from the sandpit!

I have a 72 Crossover Danbury conversion that I managed to buy a Devon Moonraker interior for a little while back.
The DM Interior will be up for grabs at some point once my good ol' dad has taken the measurements to use as a template to make me up a new set.

Unfortunately, I didn't get the back seat when I got the units, so I'm a bit stuck as to how the back seat arrangement goes together.
Id be grateful if someone could send pics preferably with measurements as my dear ol' dad will be making this up for me too.

We had a 69/70 F Reg Devon Moonraker when I was kid that my Granddad owned, that we used to travel on holidays in Devon/Cornwall and Wales in, so I've memories of drawers that pulled out from the front and rear and part of the back seat upright pulled forward or something?... But that's about it.

Any pics, advice would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
 
Just FYI, I currently have the cooker unit, the sink/cooler box unit (the sloping top one) the unit that sits behind the drivers seat that is a wardrobe and a detachable buddy seat, the wardrobe for the back, a couple of tables - no legs, the bottom of the overhead shelf unit, no doors or front to it, but with the rails for the table.

The original Danbury interior that came with her only has the back seat, full width - but I think this is aftermarket, and the cross brace and holders for the back support.

Think that's it. :?

Id be grateful if someone could tell me what else I need, but I think its just the table legs and the back drawers/Seat back and seat configuration.
 
Plenty of pictures of my Devon interior in my Build Thread if that helps..? In and Out of the van..!! :)

Is this the bit you need??
 
Gwar72, you're a star! That's exactly what I needed to see, I think...
If I've now got it right, the top of the upright piece of the seat folds down to enable a larger top bed? Do the table tops play a part in this as well? something to do with the drawers pulling into the cabin area and the tables sitting on top of them?

Thanks very much for the EBay link too, but unfortunately I'm out of the country right now so wouldn't be able to collect...

Thanks again mate :)
 
No Prob's :D

You open the inner draw flap and pull the draws into the camper about 6" then you drop down the top section and that should have a aluminium strip screw to the back of it (see picture on the right hand side you can just see tip of it showing from the back top edge) so you can the clip in the two table tops and use the 4 legs, 2 for each table to support them further into the camper.

Mines missing the aluminium strip out of mine (they are like Hen's teeth..!!) :lol:

 
Devon brochures, you'll have to go through them for the Moonraker interiors...

Gwar, thanks again!

I think there's a link on here somewhere for the aluminium strip. I'll see if I can find it.

Had a look couldn't find it after all. Apologies.

This lot seem to have most other bits though -
