Does 1980 Kombi parts fit for a 1977?

Post by Colinwa »

Hi guys,

I've managed to track a 1980 Vw kombi at a scrapyard. My question now is wil the parts on that kombi work for a 1977 one? specifically a rear bumper?

Thank you
Regards
Colin

If that is a January to + - March 1980 kombi, then yes. If it's a later 1980 kombi, then no.

The later "box shape" kombi's were introduced in SA during 1980, so both shapes were made that year.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).
