No there weren't any panel vans in the show area. Didn't trawl the carpark so there could have been one out there but highly doubtful.
You'll just have to finish yours and bring it up.

Are panel vans worth more that a windowed squareback?
Looking at buying one myself..

I sure hope they are...(mines costing me a fortune)
as far as i can find there are less than 10 genuine
aussie panel vans left in captivity...( complete ) out of the
less than 500 produced. 65 and 66 build years.
There are some fakes and some imports also.
they can be identified by the body tag behind the spare tyre with a prefix of PV. along with a few other things .
Value wise !!!!... if there are 1000 squarebacks left does that make the panel van worth 100 times more..????
i would like to hope so but i dont think so...
I can only dream......

If not, it must be a fake.  ...

might not be a fake...although that is most likely...
could be an import...
the aussie ones are 65 and 66 only... with the PV prefix
thats the easiest way to tell....
if you look at my user pic thats how they are...
checkout the samba type 3 panel van nirvana link below
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=389465
makes interesting reading even if you dont own a panel van.

Not original doesn't neccessarily mean its not cool. As original value goes that ones definately never gunna be concourse but as a basis for a really
sweet, lowered type 3 rod that thing has some real potential.
First thing to go would have to be those wheel trims though.

Agree, someones unfinished project can be a bargain.
Coolness is in the eye of the beholder, buyer or seller.
$2,500 isnt a bad price if it has minimal rust (depending on how minimal).

If I didn't already have a nice unmodified Notch I'd probably want one. My cars over the years have been everything from close to showroom spec
right through to overly modified. I hate seeing really original cars chopped and messed with, but if they've already been changed then customise all
you want. As the saying goes ...They're only original once.
Good luck with the hunt for an original panel, If one hits my radar I'll let you know.
