That would be too sweet.
I wonder if that information is available? This bus spent most of it's time in
Cajun country.

I don't know when that change occurred but there should be some codes to look
at. They just won't help him decipher what kind of conversion it is. Do early
buses have an import code? My 67 for instance came to the US through New
Orleans, and it is part of the coding.
Maybe you can find the import code?

Isn't there a number stamped in the engine compartment, on the right side near
the battery?

NO, you don't want your old bus to talk. I'm sure there's plenty of unpleasant
things that an inanimate object could remember if it could.
Besides let's not forget Ted Bundy drove a 1968 Beetle too, so there's some
things I don't want to know about.

I wish these old buses could talk...
Can you imagine some of the stories they would tell?
On Dateline last night they had a show about Woodstock showing.
There were tons of splits in the footage!
If you've got a Canadiana, then you've got a rare bus indeed.
I'd compare pics with Meyer on TS, even though he sold his several years ago.

IMO it would be really, really strange for a Canadiana conversion to be way
down here in Arkansas.

The best thing to look for in a camper conversion is a sticker with the
companies name. Many of them are on the bulkhead behind the passenger seat.
If it is not there, get ready to begin the hunt. There is a really good thread
on the Samba about these conversions. I have spent some time researching my
67, and honestly don't think I have seen anything with the window configuration
of your 58. However the windows can be misleading, so don't use them as your
only criteria.
The codes from the VW factory wouldn't have camper/panel conversion info unless
it happened at the factory.

Has it called you a "hoser"? If it has, it's from Canada. :p
Contact that owner maybe?

i've been told that 1958 is to early for m-codes, but is there anywhere on the
bus that will show me where the bus came from originally?
reason i'm asking, there's a 61 bus on the bus hunting thread on the samba that
has teh exact same windows cut into it as my 58, that bus came from vancouver
canada and is now in nova scotia, now i'm wondring if it was a canadian camper
conversion that not many folks know about, and am trying to find more info.
anyone care to take a stab at it???
