HUW
 

I see from the pic a round 2" hole in the side back panel just above the right rear tire. My HUW had the same hole in the same spot. Any ideas why its there? Articrized equipment?

Don't know
 

It's a very rough cut on both sides. Very little on the inside except the back of the storage bins. If there was something there it was removed hastily. The cutting bubbles were to the outside indicating the cut was made from the inside, after the bins were removed. Perhaps our HUW's were used for the same purpose? The same conversion?

Oh, and re-reading my first post...it's the LEFT body door NOS.
