The carbs on my car are original and like that as well. The base part says
32-34 PDSIT and on the top half it has 32PDSIT. In the rebuild kit
instructions that I recently used on them it shows a picture of the bus
carbs, with all sorts of extra bits and pieces in the top half. I assume the
only differences in the bottom half would be the venturi size, and jetting.

I used to have the earlier 32PDSIT's on a Beetle, and they did look quite a
bit different than the ones I currently have on my Fastback, but I think all
of the passages and drillings etc. would line up properly.
