    Chassis number is your friend.

    Another visual indicator could be things like the headlight arrangement, but these are subject to change at an owners whim so not definitive.

    The wheelbase will also give you some clues.

    You dont want it mate, keep to the Kombis. However Iam more then happy to take it of the farmers hands for $200 lol.
    But like Mick-Kelly said a photo would make it easier to see what model it is.

    Why not a Kombi? Were/are a cult thing. I thoroughly enjoyed my years of Kombi ownership, pretty much like the Land Rover thing.

    What.......there's something wrong with a kaftan and sandals?
