Early Bay ,Rarest of the rare...

[neilswheels]

Thought this could be fun/interesting, what have you got for your bay that it is fairly rare?
We've all seen clocks before, and trip reading speedo's, ambulance fans etc, but anything a little different?

I picked these up for my crewcab, commercial mirrors. I cant say I've seen any before, but that doesn't mean they're not common. I think they're gonna end up on my 71 Bus. Not sure they are strictly 'early bay' as they have a 74 date on the sticker.

So what have you lot got?

Great idea Neil.

By the way those mirrors are for a Type 181 but I was also contemplating running them on my bay but turns out they are quite rare. :lol:

 

[neilswheels]

Really, 181, well there you go.

So what's anyone else got that is actually Bay?

With VWs, one could never be sure about their diverse ways and options. I learn something new everyday. While hunting for 2nd Generator bracketry for my VW182 (military option 24v for funkenwagen/radio car), I came across this oil filler neck/generator mounting stand/bracketry which is at 90 degrees to the normal oil filler on Type1 aircooled VW engines, not so long ago. It was on Military spec bay window engine, in Switzerland.

I was told a bus in og Delta green was pretty rare. I'm not sure if this is true, but my bus is in og Delta green.

They can't be that rare, I have one :lol:

I have the original KPH overlay sticker for MPH speedo and an original accessory intermittent wipe by Hella - nothing much really, they have been on there since the 70's.

By the way, I didn't know the 181 mirrors fitted, I thought the threads were different.

Always something new to know

Good thread, looking forward to what else turns up.
