Kruno,
Croatia is my mother land. My great grandfather emigrated from Croatia in the late 1800's/early 1900's.
One Percenter,
The vents mean that the bus is a panel with windows cut in.

The windows didn't look hacked in to me. They looked finished in the inside and the sills. I thought it strange that there was a pop out also. Seems hacks are usually stationary. Then again BDs are not my forte. Panel was my first thought.

all indicate to me that the van is genuine and that nothing had been changed (vents, panel, etc....).
on the www I found a lot of these vans, which removes doubts.
pozdrav zemljacima  nisam se nadao da cu ovdje nabasati na takvu ekipu.

Nice Bus.
I'd start with a power-wash of the entire thing, it looks like a lot of that paint will hose right off. |
NO WAY start with brakes and a motor..and drive that bitch..

people, i need help
can I use the newer front skin and put it in a barn. I know the difference in the hole for the wipers and the difference in the size of the windscreen.

here are some detailed shots of the wiper divot
also, the windshield size is about 15 mm shorter on a barndoor...I believe all of the 15mm is removed from the top of the glass.
also, you will need to change the mounting pattern of the nose emblem.
