replacing toilet in 1965 Overlander

I have the original bathroom layout, molded fiberglass, and I need to replace the original leaking toilet. Is there a replacement available that will work in that space while maintaining the original look. It would need to use a standard toilet seat and be flat under the seat so it would fit snug against the underside of the fiberglass. I don't mind doing some modifications but can't seem to find a compatible toilet. Any ideas

Look for low profile RV toilet then you can compare the various models to what you are looking for. There are plenty of sources to choose from.

On our 66, the old porcelain original Thetford had too many rinky dink modifications to keep it. During our renovation we placed a Thetford molded unit in its place. The new one was about 3/4” short and the existing hole had to be cut a little larger. I made a short platform to support it. After a couple of years, still working great and less weight. Let me know if you need more details. Good luck, Bubba

Hello, have you solved you're toilet issue? We have a 64 Overlander I have the original toilet which I would think is the same. We are changing over to a composting toilet. Are you interested in ours?
