I looked and didnt find one. Lets see your pics of your PGSG bus.
What i want to know, first and foremost...IS...did PGSG only come on standards? Some info i have run acrossed says that deluxes also came with this color scheme. Yet i have never seen one in captivity.
Id love to see a 56 PGSG 15 window....

| There was a bone hunter up here who claimed to have a '58 15-window in sand green/palm green. Reported in original paint, I followed up on it and he said he had sold it to a guy in the U.K.. I never saw pics, but he knows VW's pretty well so there's a good chance it might have been one. |

You have heard incorrectly. The glass is identical to any other passenger class bus from the same year. |

The panel went to a guy named Quake with an unofficial junkyard and he later resold it to a guy in Redding, Ca. who then immediately advertised it on thesamba for sale;
