Re: [T3] Type 36-265 Variant Panel Van


Jim Adney

I have seen his Type 3 panel van but I don't know the answer.  I do know that he has
been driving around with a manual Fastback floorpan, tranmission, suspension etc for a
number of years without problems that I know of.  His original Panel Van floorpan was
badly rusted out and he threw it away a long time ago.
