Super nice.....i loved to have one wagon passat in my collection.....i own 2 1974 passat you see pictures of them in post in new member from Sweden...=)
And welcome....

I would love to get my hands on thoose cromed wheel arch trims.....love it...

Back in the late '80s/early '90s two teachers at my high school had early Passats, but the coupes rather than the wagon. One in the same colour if orange too.

Yours looks very clean. Maybe I'll see it around Adelaide some time.

Not quite the same model, but check this thread on a Passat resto: http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/newforum/upload/showthread.php?t=24078

LOL I drove one of these when I was gopher at a crash repairer over twenty years ago. I thought it Ugly as sin but boy did it go and handle well. Every time I look for a new car I end up sneaking a peek to see if one of these are up for sale. Nice, very nice
