Holes for the siren.

These holes were covered up with globs of putty (blu-tac?) when I bought the ambo. The 4 lower ones are for the bracket that holds the siren, the back one is for the wires (which are still there) hidden in the rooflining.

After. With a bit of help from manky. Check out his shed.

I sent the old vinyl up to Manky in QLD, he sewed up new seat covers, then sent them back.
I then re-fitted them to the cushion/frames...

This is under the fibreglass flooring...

There's some nice fresh metal there, unseen for 44+ years...
But there's also some rust...
Those larger 4 holes are the bolt holes for original front seat (driver's side). The 3 smaller holes (+ one of the big holes) are for the ambo seat that are fitted to it.
