Something looks messed up with the transaxle maybe? In the first picture it looks like the rear wheel is too far inboard, the rest of the pics look normal. |

Yes, the 21 means it started out as a panelvan. ( no windows on sides)
VW never made small hatch 13 window buses.
There is a lot of hackage in that package. _________________ The Obsolete Air-Cooled Documentation Project http://oacdp.org/ |

Pinch seam looks pretty rough, not factory, most likely hacked in. _________________ Go Reds! Smash state!

I doubt she’s held up much better than most GEX engines. _________________ Go Reds! Smash state!

Wasn't it out in CA and the owner had it for less than 2 years and went down to $55,000 after starting at $75,000? |

No vin anywhere on this truck and has frame rot. It is a wolfsburg truck. Also before I knew that I traveled 10 hours to see it for one price…. Once I got there he went up and just wanted a free education on all his stuff. He acquired all the vw stuff through buying property with the vw stash still there. I also didn’t feel comfortable being with the guy on his property either. Good luck
