Who didnt as most posters here I think fit the demographic! 
Id give $5 to do it as well to see how many people actually notice and of them actually open their mouth in a demeaning fashion as to be tagged a purist snob.

There's a lot of cars I'd rather have than a six-figure Brazilian bus

"No expense spared..."
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=2111613
Fresh air directional innards + knob would have been nice.
Oh yeah, piece of cake to add the diverter upper side screw after the headliner is in.
I think springing for a couple dome lights shouldn't seem out of the question.
Deluxe bumper trim + jail bars would have been cool too...
But, he really did spare no expense on one eyed ducks!

It's hard to see in the pics but it has the wrong front cargo door for a push-button Bus. No extra indent.
I hope the sunroof is a little bit open there, otherwise the sunroof headliner piece is super loose or installed wrong

Sorry, don't know how to copy photos...
My '66 has shorter W/T back panels than these- and the bottom of the stands are wrapped in rubber- one piece from sides across the rear. Is this grey thing normal- or another shortcoming of having a non-VW guy do your interior?

I fixed your pic with my magic admin powers
You are right, it should have wrap around rubber there and aluminum trim that wraps around too
It's the wrong middle seat for a '64 too - it has the extra cross bracing like a '67 or later seat

Exactly what you pointed out.
Also, the grey $105K bus is missing the sewn bulkhead vinyl that wraps around the sides and top for the w/t.
Ash tray bracket missing from left bulkhead panel.
bulkhead grab handle missing
armrest missing from wall.
middle seat kick panel missing.
vertical bar for drivers door window scraper missing
oh, well. |

He must have had extra cargo door panels.
