All 'bay's' had solid discs, ~'70-'79.
Not sure about T3's if that's what you mean?

In late '75 the type of caliper was changed from Teves to Girling; this was a running change and the parts were interchangeable, but no change to
the rotors, which continued as solids until '97.

Rhys,
Even the T3's are solid discs.
The late ones are smaller than the bay window ones, and they don't pull up as well as the bays either, a big step backwards by VW.

Try DBA, I'm sure they would be able to make you something, only big $$$$$$, perhaps they have something that may be close
