hmmmm.... i know where there's a container load of vintage Type 1, 2, &
3 NOS parts form a defunct VW holding company. Even found whole sides of
split screen and loaf buses. They were a bit too big for my luggage but
I brought some Type 3 pieces. I am negotiating to purchase an early dune
buggy type vehicle made by VW for rough country consumption. It's not a
Thing or a Kubelwagen... It's something very basic. Can someone guess
what it is? 

Only VW built vehicle that comes to mind that matches that description
(if it isn't a 181/182 or a Kubelwagen) is the one year only 1968 VW
Country Buggy. They didn't come much more basic ;)

Seen here at http://members.netro.com.au/~vwcc/cb.htm  since others may
never have heard of it...
