HI Jacek, looks good! and I will be keen too when you get the straps sorted. However, you will need to make two versions one for post 65 and one for all the 65 and earlier sub-hatch buses as they have a longer rack than the late racks.
Ps I finally got around to putting the hoops on my single cab last weekend, they are great! thanks... |

Those covers look great.
I asked Jacek if he would be willing to make a nice reproduction Westy tent pole bag and he said he would be willing, but does not have an original bag to copy.
If anyone has an original bag, and would be willing to send it to Jacek to copy please contact him.

| The plastic ones are for 68-72 bay windows. They line up perfectly with the anchor eyelets in the luggage top. |

Thanks Mate for your help. Right now I have no time for nothing before the HO Show and I will back to the item after it.
I've just finished the canvas cover for roof rack. The leather stripes are riveted on it. Sorry for pics but that all I have now.
I'm getting back now to preper for the H.O show.
Cheers,
Jacek |

Great job!
The dimensions for the foyer tent bag are a lot different then the bag for the privy tent poles.

Jaceck,
Are the roller-buckles & rivets steel or brass? |
Hi,
They are steel and they are (I don't how it is in English) black OXYDITE.
Cheers,
Jacek

Thanks Man for all I'm happy with that. I will put the advertise with roof rack cover soon.
I've just come back home after HO and EBI Great different shows. I've a good business in HO and I've spend awsome moments on EBI with my almost 6 years son and my good friends. Even it was 3 days rained weather.
It was really nice to meet and talked with Bill Bowman, Nancy and Dick from Bulli Werks and few other US friends from TheSamba. It was amazing time for me belive me. Thanks for that. I can't wait for more some day.
Thanks for coming to me to everybody from around the world.
Cheers,
Jacek
PS: This is my stand on EBI with my kid.

Belive or not the face is talking everything that's what you want to tell?!
Well it was the show for two tough guys. We had a lot of time to talk about life when it is rained. We were good and bad moments as in life.
