I removed the tranny from my '72 cabrio, but that one had CV joints. My '65 Variant has the older, swing axles. Therefore, I think that swing axle trannies cannot be removed while leaving the wheels in place as on split axle trannies with CV joints. Maybe I'll just try to hunt down a good used or rebuilt one in Germany or look for a shop here in Zagreb that works on T1 transmissions and see if he would have parts for mine.
