This is my next project, have some ideas of what I want to do. First thought is a sleeper, bone stock except big motor and disk brakes. Everything is matching on it and the OG motor runs, don't know how well. Interior needs some help.

SWEET! That being said, you sir have the most difficult VW to restore! Get onto the samba and post a build thread, there is also a couple of t34 specific websites as well as a t34 registry. Your going to need to network and get outside help to get even the simple things like window rubber. T34's are notorious for rusting out in the weirdest places, the speculation is the karmann plant primed over rusty sheet metal.

what's the vin? that is one of the earliest I have seen, pinwheel drums all around. Awesome. I'm looking for a 34, I will never forget rolling through fullerton in a 64 sunroof T34, dropped on real raders, listening to AM oldies on the stock radio.

If you specifically run into small parts you need, let me know. I have some friends that cut one up a few months ago
