Hello, I am visiting Prague 29th Feb. I am looking for Type 3 parts (1970). Does anyone have recommendations for good VW shops or people to contact?

My parents and I toured Czechoslavakia (i.e. Czech Republic & Slovakia combined) behind the "Iron Curtain" during the summer of 1987, in our RHD 1973 VW 1600 Type 2 Westfalia Continental motor-caravan. I didn't see any other VWs whilst we were there and our VW attracted a lot of attention from the native population, which increased substantially as we travelled further east away from Prague, close to the border with Ukraine.
Here's one of the car stickers we acquired there:
