Weird Green Bay Window with Split Bus style side windows.
Brazilian I guess?
The Blue-ish 15-window is a Brazilian Bus too
The White 13-Window apart from the other Buses looks like could be nice in the video. _________________ How to Post Photos

I might be wrong - but over 20 years ago
Michael Dezer bought a large Puerto Rico
VW Museum Collection.
This collection is the core of the VW
vehicles that are stored off public view.
Ricardo was on the phone with a
friend from Germany discussing
an upcoming trip to Brazil to buy
vehicles while I was shooting the
video of the VW Beetles.
One of the storage areas has as
many - if not more - Vintage VW Buses.
I had never heard of this museum
until I picked up this 1954 VW RHD
Beetle when I visited on Wednesday.
I plan on returning and shooting
more videos …. _________________ Jim is on the road @ http://www.trulyvintagetrailers.citymax.com/trulyvintage-feedback.html

There was a big collector in Puerto Rico selling lots of VWs a while back, Randy of oldbug.com was helping him/advertising a lot of them.
I think it was more like 5 years but it could be 10 now. |
This?

Thanks - that was it.
My old 1966 Type 34 was in there.
This was a NICE car, I hope someone who has it now is cruising it around _________________ How to Post Photos

It is a lovely example of a type 34. _________________ I have learned over the years.

Yes, that's it, that's for grabbing a link.
Some of the interior has some weird staining, like the driver's door panel. Maybe from the weather or humidity there?
They also changed the wheels, which is weird since it had stock wheels with accessory trim rings:

I remember when Dezerland was originally in New York City/Manhattan in the 1980's, but never visited... |
