Right - me again...just one last question for today....the spare wheel for my van (1970 deluxe microbus) is sat inside the back in the spare wheel hole. However it is not covered or secured. Is there some sort of belt that came with the van to secure it or was it just held in by the spare wheel cover? Don't like driving with it loose....a hard bit of braking and a wheel will hit me in the head!
 
Hello mate, i have the same thing as you (it sits in well in the back on the passenger side) Mine has a black spare wheel cover that goes over the top which you can screw to floor if you need to, but to be honest I have never done this and have not had any probs in over 10 years.

You can pick up the covers at shows etc not sure where sells them new or if you can buy them new. I will have a little looksie and get back to you. :D
