Hey, I've a 7 passenger '88 Vanagon that has "Transporter" on the back
of it. It's in the same raised plastic lettering that is on the back of
my other 88 Vanagon with lettering says "Vanagon GL". Maybe there are
Vanagon "Transporter's" but I can't recall having ever seen one that had
that label.

My "Transporter" also has the VW logo recessed into the rear hatch.
Haven't seen that either. Definitely not surface mounted.

Do applied labels a vehicle make?
