early devon interior.

Ok so my 62 is getting the Devon treatment. Not being able to find a good non restored uk van I opted for an Australian 11 window, it's a bit rough but I like it. Anyways trying to find a complete interior for a pre 63/64 has been hard but I've found various parts. I have a rear drawer frame in need of a good bit of repair but it's missing the drawers. I've looked and looked but not found any, can someone please find me a pair or show me some pictures so I can recreate some.
Many thanks.

Someone on here had a pair of wide hatch drawers for sale - I can picture his bus but not the username. Search my posts in this section I have mentioned them before.

If you have a narrow hatch then take them apart and cut them down - they're the correct sloping front ones for your yearo.

62/3 has longer rear drawers as they go all the way to the seat back - earlier have lockers in the rear seat back and later have table leg storage behind the seat.

Mine are being borrowed for copying so I can't do you measurements I'm afraid.

It's a narrow hatch pre 63 bus and the frame I have goes tight to the back of the rear seat.
Also what else goes either side? I have a locker that looks like it fits on the nearside up against the
Overhead table holder.

Depends which year. 62 had a single locker on the passenger side under the table holder; 63 on had two lockers one each side.

Either side of the drawers there are covers the same as the main piece which covers the top of the drawers - they just place over the edges and there are wooden batons to support them at the edge of the bus. Some have brass finger pulls, some I've just seen with finger holes although not sure if that's correct.
