I don't think I've ever seen a bay window with a bench seat. On the other hand
I agree that most splitties had bench seats.

Our 64 and 67 all window vans both had the wall. The 70 had the
gap to walk through. A girlfriend's 62 panel van with just the
window in the rear hatch also had the wall. I think that in those
early years the wall was standard. It is possible that after the
redesign in 68 with the big front window that the walk through
was made the standard at least over here but I don't know enough
about the history of it all to say for sure. At the same time the
roof vent system in the front was changed and the placement of
the heater and vent control was moved to the dash which allowed
the floor to be flat from front to back. Before that the heater
control was in the center under the front of the bench seat.
