The early Bus autos and the Type 3/4 automatics are both "003"s.  The 
Bus final drive (differential carrier) is quite different from ours, but the 
actual transmission is nearly identical.

This all goes out the window with the '76-later Bus & Vanagon which 
used the 010/090 automatics; those are a different beast altogether.
