that sticker below the TaubenBlau L31 might be a give away- looks like it says Boja?Broj ? which might be related to Hungary?
Although it is a one owner truck it doesn't look like it has had the easiest life |

The seller said it was originally sold in Yugoslavia
I added that to the list but it's a bit weird since all the other Yugoslavias start with Y. |
This is really a great bus and a great thread to read!
JU stands for "Jugoslawien", German for Yugoslavia. This has been confirmed by VW through the birth certificates of my two 1967 Yugoslavian delivered deluxes.
I have a good friend who ownes another 1967 Yugoslavian delivered deluxe and another two Yugoslavian delivered split buses.
There must have been only a few of them delivered to that country!
I'm very interested in the history of all these buses actually back then delivered to a communist country!
Do you have some more information on this one from the seller? Do you have his contact data?
Who owned it before?
Who ordered the bus back then in Yugoslavia?
What was its history?
I would really appreciate any information about this story!
Thanks in advance! |

Do you have some other pictures of this one?

No M-codes. Just a nothing special 21 window.....
