Despite the T3 not being MARKETED in USA as a > Type 2 or Transporter, it is nevertheless. Ahhh, the matter of semantics. You see, Type 2 is the common U.S. name for the split-window and bay-busses. That's what's being referred to here. Vanagon is not called a Type 2 in the U.S., where the air-cooled fanatics would hang you high on the nearest tree for such sacrelige. Keep that in mind when visiting... ;-) (A joke, of course). But, I'm Polish and don't care either way, so you're safe! Chris, '85 Westy.
