Westfalia Canvas - early vs new

[spacebiscuit]

Does anyone know the difference between an early and late bay Westfalia canvas. Of course I am aware that the late bays are rear hinged, but are the dimension also different? Just realised that the canvas I picked up a few years ago has 74-79 on the box, I can't be sure that the box is original but it likely is.

Very different dimensions

Late bay pop tops are a bit bigger than the early front hinged ones.

Thanks all - yeah seems the roof rack on the later bays is a lot smaller meaning the hinged part increased on the later models.
