Volkwagen Microbus to end production

I own a 73 and an 88. When production ends it will definitely make it harder to keep the 73 on the road.

But please don’t call either one a “cab-over”. That’s a body style used on large trucks where the body flips forward to access the engine. Since the engine in both the type2 and Vanagon are in the back, the cab does not move.

Call it cab forward, sure. Or even “forward control”. But not cab-over. Thanks.
