if yours is a early van, it will be this one

you should be able to tell by looking at your one, whether it's bent or straight?
as yours is Aircooled, it'll probably be the one i've linked to

Have you tried the Brickwerks website you can input your chassis number (VIN) and you get a report listing the birth date of your van etc...also included is a few notes on which drop link arms type of door fitting, early or late fuel tank etc. :mrgreen:
