wow! A type 4!!! yeah, the fenders are swappable, rear ones for all years and front ones per early/late. (there's 2 types- late mondel and early model. earlys are all swappable, and all lates are swappable) You can swap bodies too- I'm about to do it between a 63 notch ahd 71 square- only problem you might have is wiring- if you have FI, the harness goes with the body.making it tough to put on a older body and making the FI work. But i doubt that is your problem! As to the auto / manual, I have no clue. But someone will.. Oh, there's 2 auto squares (late) for sale at a tow yard in Clearwater, Fl, it anyone is intertested... -rj > -----Original Message----- > From: Decker, F J [SMTP:Decker.F@PSS.Boeing.com] > Sent: Tuesday, June 16, 1998 12:08 PM > To: 'type3@vwtype3.org' > Subject: Swapping parts between years/models > > I may be aquiring an automatic '69 squareback and a manual '68 > fastback. > (I'm going to look at them tonight).
