  8. They are on the right track with the VW Wagon, but I think it is more likely the VW "Notchback" Type 3, there were the Squarebacks (Wagon) and Fastbacks (as the name implies) sold in the US, the Notchback was never officially imported to the US, but a lot of them came back with service men returning from Europe, and a lot migrated down from Canada, where they were sold.

    great stuff- mentioned to a friend a while back that I was going to a swap meet-he boasted that he had no been to a swap meet or a junk yard in 15 years or so - just a catalog shopper -I try to avoid him now

    The first photo looks like a 1967 VW squareback rear fender. I have right and left if you need them.

    Whoa,I was there yesterday also. I thought the first few pics looked familiar until I saw the pink caddy.

    Some neat stuff there,but didn't really find anything for the current project.
