    spotted this yesterday in dunlavin co wicklow ..
    pics not great

    That's a very early aircooled van, recognisable by the non-plastic air intakes.
    Sadly the front has been hacked into for the lower grille (and radiator behind it).

    Looks like it has a few rust issues too

    I could help with the names (though many have english names in the page filenames), but my Japanese sucks beyond that.

    Hi,

    I would be gratefull if you could find out for me. I would love to get one and do a full nut and bolt restoration. Would be a shame to get them scrapped.


    Thanks.
