Two of them are the tall tail lights and the flat hub caps. Not sure about a chrome strip around the belt line. A lot of '68s and '69s had them but not sure if all non-Westy's did. Another is the exhaust system. The pre-'72s had a single outlet on the left. The newer ones had the outlet on the right. Haven't seen any of these in Illinois for a while ;-) Tom Illinois

Naturally, the ad folks don't get the year right. That is a 1972 VW Bus,
I'd say. It has at least 4 things not found on a stock 68. Anyone know
what they all are?
