Just wondering if anyone drives a VW Type 4. I never see them mentioned on this site.
Just curious how hard it is to get parts e.g. seals, seat covers, headliners, etc? Does the transmission share engagement teeth and sncyros with our 914's? Maybe it's me, but I can't find 411/412 parts on common VW parts store like bus depot, CIP1, etc. |

There was a family in our neighborhood that got a 412 around '72, they also had an Audi Fox. Clearly gluttons for punishment. I check avails on the Samba for oddballs (still searching for a '75/6 Scirocco) and never see more than a handful of type 4s for sale. Usually beat.
When new they were the most plush and expensive Volkswagen, now they're mostly forgotten. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/cat.php?id=11 |
