Pretty much focusing on the 61 right now.

As for the Westy the only things i have planned at the moment are to freshen up brakes, put bigger tires on it and install the copper exhaust gaskets that are sitting in my garage (yes Chuck, i installed the exhaust studs without changing the gaskets, shame on me :x).

Those are all the little things i want to get done before Kelley's, but who knows VWs have a way of surprising you!

Your seats are the 68-79 ones like somebody teased you about earlier. The cardboard kick panel that clips to the legs of the rear seat should be the same for all bays and is one piece. I had one I kept for a template in the loft of the barn, but God knows what it got buried underneath over the years. The middle seat only has the side kick panel, which I don't have at all.

thanks nick...I know the rear early seats middle leg sits back a few inches back to leave room for heat log, but is the panel itself the same? my main concern is the measurments where color split's and that trim covers the seam...

Bays don't have a heat log under the rear seat like a split does, at least not in my experience with my 68, 70, and 71 bays. The 70 is a passenger bus and the og panel that clips to the legs is all black and one piece, no seams or anything in it. There are little cutouts at the bottom edge for the small heat vents that come out of the floor. The middle leg of the rear seat is probably modified to clear the heat log if its a bay seat in a split. I know from seeing some splits that the rear seat kick panel is two colors, but how to incorporate that into a bay style panel, I have no clue.

If you're worried about the panel bending inward if you do the clips on the back to attach it to the legs, you can always only attach it with clips to the outer legs and not the middle one that sits back further. Or you can do a spacer to compensate for the difference in middle leg depth. I've never taken the panel off my 70 and haven't looked at the spare one in probably 4 years. If I remember right, all three clips are the same length on the spare one.
