Mindy,

Ten years ago this would have been the right list, but
the original VW bus list has split into three main
groups with numerous offshoots. Vanagons are the 1979
and later model rear engined VW buses, sounds like
yours are splitties, definately more vintage.

You need to contact the people on the vintage bus
list. Go to http://www.type2.com/ and click on vintage
bus.

Thats where all the people with 1950-1967 buses hang
out. Spend some time with the archives and introduce
yourself. I am sure you can get plenty of help.

Tom Forhan
1964 Standard
1983 9 passenger sunroof
1990 Syncro Westfalia
