hi guys, this thread helps us out too. We are now just stuck as to whether put double or single passenger seats in. We would like to ideally recover and keep our seats but the enforcement has gone im them and they would never pass mot. We also ideally wanted captain seats in order to socialise more. But then that means it has to be a single seat and no more than one passenger :-( when i recovered my triumph herald door cards, some triumph dealers sold pre cut out boards, to the exact measurements of the door card, so all you'l have to do would be just to recover, has anyone ever known a pattern for transit mk1 door cards?

So the pics I posted are of later 70's mk1's?? :oops:
Than just like the door card of the mk2's , pre facelift have some lines pressed in while the facelift version are just blank with vertical lines :? (I don;t like them too blank!)
From the above pics he can take an idea , and In my opinion the last pic which has the wood colour it seems to make the van a bit more like classic :lol: :lol:

Then just for knowledge , how many different combinatons there are of the dash etcc, three types?? :?:
