My guess is that doors from a Fleetline or Brasilia was added at a later stage.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).

I'm sure I'm not the only one ...

I can't see the pic at work , but I'm assuming it's not a Brazilian baysplit hybrid, which is the only baywindow I know that had factory hinged cargo doors.

I've seen split bus cargo doors in place of the slider (on a bay bus in Ethiopia). Width-wise they fit perfectly, but were a bit short at the bottom.

since you cant see the picture, it looks like a panel van with cargo doors fitted that has windows.
Gap on the bottom looks flush.
Could have been a mod, judging by what looks like a one of many paintjobs

Definitely hacked in. The doors are originally from a Fleetline Kombi.
