The '87 Wolfsburg Edition Camper also came with a blue/gray tweed upholstery with matching blue plastic panels (very rare, I've seen one in person and one on the web). Since these were non-GL models, they wouldn't have come with fiberglass bumpers, though I'm sure that one or two might have made it here with them, or window moldings with chrome trim. They were still being sold in Europe as late as '89 under the model name "Multivan" in the Spanish T3 brochure that I have, still with steel bumpers. Both of the two '87's on ebaY look to have chrome window trim, like most of the GL models of that model year, you had to pay extra for that :>).
