Official Type 34 thread

Do only type 34's have the inner tire support bracket on the spare tire bowl? or do other models have it too? My '65 squareback does not have it. My type 34 does.

I recycle old cars and parts, other than when I rot, that's as Green as I am going to get.

Thanks to my Tesla driving neighbors, I feel more relaxed driving my SUBURBAN and old VW's.

Everything sounds good on paper!

I think so. I've never seen one on either a Square or a Notch, but my T-34 did have one.

Anyone know when type 34 tail light bases got the rubber cap to protect the wiring on the light bulb. See top and bottom. My parts manual is dated 1972 and it only shows the base with the rubber cap.

I was going to say the no cap is an early thing but have no idea about cut off date. I was happy to have early, cast, two piece rear lights that have caps. That way you can detach the chrome ring and put the restored ring onto a cast body, capped tail light.
