Description
This meticulously crafted reproduction, boasting exceptional quality, is stamped with precision and maintains the original thickness of metal. Coated with a weld-through e-primer for added durability, it proudly presents the early model bulkhead tailored for your VW Bus manufactured from August 1955 to July 1962, identified by VIN up to 971549. Recognized as the half-moon bulkhead, its defining features come to life when examining the accompanying images. In contrast to its later counterpart, the full moon bulkhead (Aug 1963 to Jul 1967), the early model seamlessly aligns with the configurations of earlier buses.
Volkswagen's decision to introduce this new bulkhead model was rooted in a straightforward adjustment in the seat arrangement. Specifically designed for buses equipped with a one-piece Bench front seat, the half-moon bulkhead stands out as the ideal choice. Conversely, if your bus boasts a 1/3 + 2/3 seat configuration, the Full Moon bulkhead seamlessly integrates. Crafted with pride on BBT's exclusive tooling, this bulkhead holds a distinguished place within our Silver Weld Through line, offering top-notch restoration sheet metal components for your cherished Volkswagen. Please note that this offering does not include the top cover. For Kombi, Standard, and Deluxe models, we recommend exploring VWC-221-867-737-A.
