Hello,I have had a problem with wind over the past few years,I mean with the Puck.Firstly something blew up and broke the side window next to door,I had to remove it so now it just has the inner flat window.Then the caravan blew into the house,I didn't have the handbrake fully on,it cracked the opening rear window and broke the NS rear lens,they are Hella,and lastly the bottle cover blew off and disappeared as I was driving along.I haven't been able to find any of these parts,i think it is a late 1970s Puck it has the crinkle finish on body,would anyone be able to help where I might be able to find any of these parts,thanks David.

Windows for a van that old are not easy to find I vaguely remember reading about a company that makes windows to order but can't find it at the moment maybe someone else can remember?

Likewise the lights, but you might be able to fit some similar ones that would not look too out of place like these maybe?

Gas box ............ if this is the right one ..........there is a replica available but its not cheap

The only other thing I can think of is asking Jandi the dealer in Scotland, they seem to be the go place for hard to find parts.

Am I the only one amazed by the absence of fart jokes in this thread?

I was being polite, don't know if everyone else was doing the same or were asleep.

Thanks for the help,I have spoken to Jandi and they are seeing if a new ones are available,the breakers are seeing if they have any second hand and I am waiting for a price from eeco for re manufacturing,so hopefully one of them will come up trumps.

I hope you are still there David.
OK I'll ignore the connection between trumps and wind.
I need a 1981 Puck rear window. does anyone have any advice apart from what has been already said - or know of any up to date information? I would be happy to have a window without the aluminium trim, it is 960mm wide and 515mm high.

Windows for early Eribas are rare, try this firm they may be able to make one for you.

I've had a quote from eeco for a new rear window for my 1981 Puck. £350 which at first I thought was expensive but on reflection it is proportionally not too bad compared with the original manufacturers price of a window I needed for a one year old motorhome 2 years ago. The longer I think about it the nearer I will get to accepting it and having the window made.
Trouble is I only paid £500 for the puck when its window wasn't broken! And before you lot start talking about a bargain I have to completely rebuild it . I've got some steel and I need to bend it and weld it to replace the rusted front chassis outers.

But I'm thinking that you'll be so proud of it when it's finished!
