James: Don't understand the hubcap issue. Unless they are repop hubcaps they
should fit. If you are running 15" stock bus wheels original stock hubcaps
should fit just fine even if you are running a later big nut axle tranny.
There is not really any such thing as late and early hubcaps for a bus.

Well it turns out the center pin bushings are the original ones and were never
replaced. They are really worn, almost oval. It will cost me $125 plus parts.
I'm shooting for the Ft. Worth show as the 1st one for this Bus. Unfortunately
I just looked and the parts I desperately need are out of stock!
Somehow I ended up with a vent louvered trim set that is evidently for earlier
buses. They are too long. I got them from WW if anyone needs a set they are in
perfect condition.
Does anyone know where I can look for these trim pieces? I also need later
model hubcaps because the nut on the rear axles protrude too much to use the
correct year hubcap. Any ideas where to get some nice show quality ones besides
The Samba? Of course I have a set I can't use in perfect condition if anyone
needs a set : )
The last 2 parts I need I think I can get from Ronnie and a FLAPS. Any
suggestions appreciated!
