Re: 188 Sign Written Vintage VW Buses
You could even order them from the factory that way: M100: supplied without VW emblem on front. Others, like my Oxford Radio panelvan, simply removed the emblem and plugged the holes before signwriting.splitfan wrote:...i never noticed before but most of those busses have their vw emblems removed from the front....
