Kelly, Sorry, but Type 4s did not have standard automatic transmission. I would doubt whether even half the Type 4s made had automatic transmission. Automatic transmission was an option (VW Option M-249) throughout the period of VW Type 4 production from 1969 to 1974 model years. In most countries where the Type 4 was sold, automatic transmission was either not made available at all by the importers or it was an optional extra. For the USA , the importers specified that most of their Type 4s should have M-249 but even for the USA automatic transmission was not standard. The 2-door VW Type 41 was usually sold in USA only with manual transmission.
