That trim strip on the dollys in this pic… it will have to get cut to fit. Most of the original ribbed aluminum securing strips that hold tent to roof and tent to bus are gone. I found a set of baywindow era westy top strips which are the same profile and are long enough, they’ll just need cut to fit when you get to putting the tent on.
Steering Lock: can you shoot a picture of the one that was in the bus so I can see what is there/missing?
Just the key….
It didn’t come back to me with a key for it unfortunately. 🙁
Locksmith? Would love to have it match to the doors. Was there a key with the handles?
So the wiper motor… I think that goes to a super or a type 3 or something with a HUGE windsheild. I looked around to see if I had what you needed… I think I found EXACTLY what you need… 66 assembly… 6v, but one piece like a 67 assy. Notice how the shafts angle out like the front wind screens…
One of the shafts is frozen, but I think I could steal one off the wrong assy you have, if I can’t free it up. I also think we have a 12v Volvo motor around here, which looks like the original style, but 12v.. Now, all this is going to probably cost more than a good used 67 assy…. or rebuilt from samba … So letting you decide before I spend a 1/2 on a wiper assy. I’m not keen on spending money on wipers… cause they won’t work worth the fuck anyway… My favorite set up, has been a 6v unit with an adjustable voltage drop… Ok so looks like a year parts/nose issue. I’m thinking the nose clip that went in must have been a 65. My understanding is that 67 and almost all of 66 has that big motor like the one I sent with the bus. 65 was a one year only assembly where the mechanism is similar to 66/67 but it uses the older style motor.
I’m using my “Phone a friend” option on this one. Should have info and hopefully a parts solution shortly.
Do you have one of these or do I need to send mine? Tool to install tensioning bead/strip into the window rubber on the dormy top…
