Hello Roel,

I just wonder about one thing about your van. I see you have sliding front doors. I thought they only were produced for the '65 models. Did you convert your van to sliding doors or what? :o

Hello malta transit I made a Little mistake I'll show you :oops:


[quote="malta transit"]Have you a photo from underneat, of the this part which you made. or can you make a rough shape on a cardboard and send a photo. Mine has disentigrated with rust and i don't know what shape it was and were there were the holes of the back bumper brackets. Thanks roelsmits
/quote]

I thought this was in one line

but it isn't
Use the first hole to measure the other two holes
