Does anyone know if VW produced any 4 wheel drive vehicles at anytime between the war time Type 82 bug's or Schwimwaggens (sp)? up until they started producing the Syncro?

the examples and tech was already worked out..

a 4wd optioned bug would have rocked.. then the thing too. why let JEEP have all the fun.

plus that bug delivery would have been epic if produced for the small delivery in European markets..
