It definitely looks like both side rear windows were installed afterwards..... I would make it a panelvan again, but that depends on your preferences.

That is not splitty upholstery.

I have come across those seats before, but they have always been in Bay' format.

Some of the later T3 busses had that option - I'm surprised that it fits in there !

I thought the upholstery does not look right ,it looked a lot like my friends 1984 seat but his is material.
