Sorry Mick I don't have any. Bloke came around and bought the split window wheels I had for it. He showed me the pics when he came around, motor,
gearbox are gone and part of the rear suspension/chassis has been cut out of it. He's talking about turning it into a trailer for camping. I was
trying to work out if it was worth my while to convince him to get it going properly. Might be able to get some pics next weekend though.

According to the Clayton Production Numbers I have there was a total of 1184 Double door splittys produced in the following years
Pre 1966 1044
1966 47
1967 84
1968 9.
This compares with a total 9551 Splitty Panel ( 214)
There were more Double Door splitty panels produced at Clayton than there were Country Buggies made for sale in Oz (887 units)

Sounds like they are a lot more common than in the Bay and T3 vans.

The first double door Bays were produced in August 1968 when 8 units rolled of the Clayton production line and by the end of December 1968 35 Double
Door Bays has been produced as Type 216 011 which were Manual 1600cc. My records say a total of 311 Double door Bay units were produced with the last
unit in Oct 1973.
There were also a total number of 191 Type 216 Double door M Code Bay units produced between January 1969 through to November 1973.
I don't have any details of T3 units only the stuff coming off the Clayton production line.

Interesting, 58camper: I have one of those 68 1967 double-doors, a panel. Now has window doors on it though (not hacked windows).
I also have one of the 311 double-door Bays, a '69. That one does have hacked-in windows. I'll need to obtain a real right-side window door from
overseas one day, but I'm wary because the last "1969" door I got (normal Aus' passenger side) has slightly different hardware than mine so I
can't use it. :-(
Cheers.
