in europe you could order a vanagon with a aircooled beetle 1600 motor.

i know of a '81 vanagon Kombi locally in a barn that came from france - its
got the 1600 bug motor in it.   badged as a transporter..  it white, fixed side
glass, no headliner, parcel tray instead of glovebox, etc. thats how it came
from the factory.
