a "Kombi" is a base line NON-GL passenger vanagon.  the US versions (albeit
rare) said "vanagon" on the back. thats it. no "L" or "GL".  The cdn/euro
versions said "transporter" or "bus" on the back. very few vanagon kombis
were sold in the US - the few that made it in were usually early aircooled
models, tho i do know someone with a '85 kombi local, which was special
ordered with a brown cord. weekender interior..(wierd van, has no armrests on
front seats, no power steering, no tach, but a weekender interior...wierd.)  
these vans had no frills at all. most had vinyl seats, and rubber floor mats,
no cloth or carpet.  no tach.  usually no power steering.  
in other words - a PANEL VAN WITH WINDOWS AND SEATS.
