If you will look CLOSELY at the pictures of the South Africa "Vanagons" you will notice that ALL of the body panels are slightly different. In particular, check out the rear windows -- they are MUCH bigger than on our 80-91 Vanagons. The doors are different too.

I suspect, there are many other differences as well. However, that being said, SOME parts will certainly be interchangable.
