I'm going to assume that means you're parting out this bus. You're taking the interior and you're not keeping the bus? I might be interested in the slider door, front seats, dash components, lights and bumpers (maybe some sheet metal) if that's the case. Depends on what I need for my '69. How's the front beam?

What do you mean by the front beam ? Yes I am parting him out.

Don't do it, early bay camper interiors are horrible, and they should stay in early bays (or splits), moving it to a 78 bus is a step in the wrong direction, Keep looking for a late bay camper interior....

The front axle. The thing the front tires are connected to under the bus.

If your interested in a late bus Z-bed, I have one with the side floor cabinet that sits next to the bed that has storage and a non-electric cooler box (two doors on top). I'd trade it for the '71 bed and a floor cabinet. The laminet on mine is not in the best of shape, but both very usable.

The inside of my 71 is in perfect condition so I’m going to keep all of it and put it in my 78

Sounds good. My late bay stuff needs some TLC. Besides, I hate camping.

The whole reason I bought the 71 is for the interior it’s in much better condition than my 78 I really wish I could restore him but that’s more bodywork than I’m ready to do again
