Hello
Back in 1980 I bought a 60 bus. I sold it shortly after, I bought a nicer 62.
I have one old photo of the 60. It shows no side window behind the cargo doors.So, two windows behind the pass. door. Three windows on the driver's side.
Is this a 10 window bus?
Thanks |

| What you are describing is a 10 window bus but the logical explanation is it probably started life as a panel bus and somewhere along the line a prior owner added cargo doors with windows and added windows onto the drivers side long panel. |

| Or aftermarket camper windows?, could even be a crash repair with a clip from a windowed, or non windowed donor. |

| Sure sounds like a common camper conversion to me. Share the picture with us. |

The photo is an old black and white print. Not very clear except I can see the right side.
The left side windows were factory appearing, not added camper windows.
Could be about the doors.
I think it had a camper interior, but no sub hatch.
This was a long time ago.
The factory didn't make any 10 windows?
Not sure why I brought this up. But it might be possible to ID the bus if say, it was stolen recently?
Thanks |

The factory made buses with an equal number of windows on each side. So it either had no windows on the sides behind the doors or 3 windows on each side behind the front doors. The factory obviously made deluxe buses with more than 3 windows on the sides but they did not make any bus with 3 windows on one side and 2 windows on the other side. |

Well, I found another pic of the drivers side.
Three camper awning style windows. That solves that mystery.
Like I said, a long time ago.
The cargo door windows must have been added to a panel.
Sorry, this didn't turn out as some rare bird. |
