hi everyone i have a 71 bay
started replacing rear wheel hub and arch on both sides
the problem is no hub will fit my early bay side panel. I have tried all three that are out there.
the only way is to fit a late bay hub and side wheel arch panel.

the bus is stock and I want to keep it as much as i can.

but Im not messing about with the hub.
That's been done already and its crap!

would you say this is an ok way to sort it out?
