So I have a '70 9 passenger Bay and I'm in the process of making panels for it and I remembered on my '64 there was a kick panel on the rear seat and one on the side of the 2/3 seat frame. Is there anyone out there in TheSamba land that can post me a picture of their stock kick panel for the rear seat and for the full length middle seat?
For this I would need a total flat 2D picture of the front and/or the back so that I can project a picture on the material to draw the shape along with the dimensions of the panel so I would know how big to project the image onto the sheet. Thanks for any and all help here.
Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.

Happy motoring...

As you can see in the thread that Tcash posted, there was never a kick panel across the front of a middle seat. There was only the side panel. And, I could be wrong on this, but I THINK that the side panel was the same for 2/3 and 3/3 (full width) middle seats.

Can you post a photo of your full-width middle seat?

I believe I have both the front panel for the rear seat, and the side panel for a full-width middle seat, but they are not from 1970, so they might not be applicable to your situation.

I love your bus, by the way. That one has the honest look of a hard-working bus.

I'm still needing a full frontal view of the back seat kick panel.
Can anyone out there get one for me?

I could dig one up, but they look just like a split in terms of clips etc. what exactly do you need a photo of?
