you need to look at the vin plate code and then check the number at thesamba.com....I think. I have some details here. If you post me the numbers I
could check that out for you.
Hopefully the plates haven't been takne off a wreck then added on a different bus.u would
Check for welding in the roof section be it where the window sections are and rag top for welding marks or whether another roof has been added.
Have you found one? If I can help further I will

out of interest.....
Do both 21 and 23 windows have the 2nd floor??
When people make "copies" do they go to the trouble of putting that 2nd floor in??

an aussie built 15 window is highly desirable in its own right. no need to add roof windows. |

Finding one is not that difficult these days. So many of them on The Samba. Affording one is a different question.
Thanks for the replies
