You're in the right place. Though I have to say I'm really disappointed that you didn't start the thread with a hilariously well written story of how you acquired it  . |
Perhaps if I start a rebuild thread, I'll share one. :

hey now," vw knowledge is not trival" its important
every time i see one of these
i cant help but think how rare the yellow vinyl is on the full width seat
just imagine of how few were made & how even fewer survived.....
and how long it would take to find that extra long piece of mustard vinyl
if you needed to replace it

Does it have the Continental Bed up top or a cot, by chance?
Looks very similar to my S072/4, mine was a delivered to a German Dealer, and imported here, although it does have us spec prep. I suspect it was changed over once here. No stove in mine. |
