We know 12 is tapered. But is 15 different? I've also heard of people using a late split part for 7, how similar are they?
Cheers

As I know it is the same on all barndoors. I have used these on both my 50 and when I had that, my 53.
It is the same tube. On the picture below i is stretched.

Did anyone ever answer this? Is 7 close on a later bus to this on a barn door?

feet on earlier buses go straight down?


I’m struggling to find info on heater logs. Are they the same through 67, just the feet being different?

Cheers. Dave

My 54 has a 50mm intake pipe so that got larger at some point. I think later ones were 60mm??? Log body looks the same though.

It went to 60mm in 1964 but not sure if Barndoor is exactly the same as non-Barndoor Buses, other than both being 50mm.
