Have you got a barnoor out there?
Interesting to see how many are left of only a couple of hundred or so that came to Australia.Do you have one or know of one?.Even if it's a
wreck it's still a barndoor if you have a picture to go with it even better.
Considering how rare they are there are still a few floating around...
This one my dad owns and had two others but sold them to a freind,also had a single cab barndoor sold it to a guy in Brisbane,

Go get it!
Don't look,don't think about it,go and get it or bits off it as this sort of thing does
'nt happen every day,just hang on to the stuff or it will be gone forever.
I found one a while back,the body had dissolved but it had the gear shift,peadal cluster,rearend etc which i got and is rare as crap.Atleast if
someone like you who is into V.W.s gets it,it wo'nt be lost and if you don't get it tell someone else and they will surely save it or put it
on vagrant V.W.s in this forum.

If you do go and get it, I would be really interested in the front seat, I am from the UK and have a 54 RHD Doubledoor Panel Van with no front
seat.
Or if anyone know of one please contact me
Cheers

Changes?
What is the difference between a barndoor front bench from a pre 1959 front bench?a bit thinner maybe,or is it a special barndoor only thing.
Can't a later model bench go in or what.

A barndoor front bench seat is different, as the base is flat, unlike a post 55 one which is shaped to fit a recess in the seat bulkhead.
