my first bay

[mezcal70]

Hi all
just paid the deposit on my first Bay after being a Split fan for 22 years.....i'm converted , hopefully be picking it up in a couple of weeks....are there any good links for info in general.
she's a late 67 westy slightly modified and has what i think are some cool accessories already.
Anyway just wanted to say i look forward to becoming one of the community of Baywindow owners. :mrgreen:

is there such a thing as an early '67 bay westy then :wink:

seriously though, if you didn't already know, and i'd guess the majority of the developed world does the amount he goes on about it, clem, whose name you see all over the site in red like some sort of demigod, also has a '67 bay westy, and what he doesn't know about them probably isn't worth knowing, so if you get stuck for info. give him a shout... he's friendly and approachable, provided you use a coaster under your mug :wink:

is there such a thing as an early '67 bay westy then :wink:

Surely that would be one manufactured July/September '67 and a late, one manufactured October/December '67?
Would that not be a reasonable distinction?
Mine is Oct.'67 , making it a late early, early bay. I think.... :?

what with years having an even amount of months, it's quite easy to split them into two, hence january to june is 'early' and july to december is 'late', unless i missed something at school ?

i don't think there were (m)any bays built before june 30th 1967, although i'm no expert, so surely every bay that was built during 1967 was built 'late' in the year, i.e if somebody thinks their bay was built in early 1967 it might be a idea popping around the front and checking how many 'windscreens' it's got :wink:

so you've got a late early, early bay eh ?

i reckon i've got a very early, early late, for my sins
