Digging up an old thread, does there happen to be any updated documentation (registry) on the oldest non barndoor busses?

Isn't the oldest known non-barndoor type II the singlecab that one of the triple Js has?

These used to be a note on barndoor.dk listing the oldest known non-barndoor, but I can't find that now. I know there is also a super early non-barndoor kombi in Australia, which was the oldest known until the singlecab turned up in BC.

It's under "Picture Gallery" on his site.

It has a couple Single Cab photos and points to this Single Cab thread here:

Yup, I agree on that being the oldest. I know that one well. Pretty hard to beat that. Anybody have any other info they can share on early Wolfsburg busses and their vins?
