I have a 1981 Brazilian baywindow double cab with a watercooled diesel. Most of the parts are ordinary bus parts or 1.6 liter VW Rabbit parts, but a few parts such as the radiator grill cover and transmission are truly unique. Does anyone know of a decent parts supplier because I can't seem to find one. Thanks in advance.
Randall

| Our 82 watercooled double cab just arrived last week. Looking for a new front grill. Did you have luck finding one? |

Brazilian-built, air-cooled & water-cooled, 1997~2012, "bay-window" VW Type 2Cs were imported into Great Britain by Beetles (UK) Ltd in quite large numbers.
It's likely that British VW Type 2 parts retailers like Just Kampers and VW Heritage might have what you need. What's more, they speak proper English!

I've got some Brazilian contacts I can ask. Send me a list of the part numbers and I can forward it down there.
