Hiya mud,

Even if you can't read a VIN (by the way, a VIN is a VIN whether it's here in the States or in Germany or in Lower Slobovia) all you need to do is to look at the VIN. It's on a metal plate riveted to the frame just ahead of the driver's position. Look through the windshield. If you have a 1970 Bus the third number of the VIN will be a zero. Plain and simple, if that third number is not a zero your Bus is not a 70.

thats the problem there is no vin drivers side window. Thats the problem im haveing. To marow i will be posting some pics so that should help. thanks so far guys

On a 70 model the VIN is in two other places, behind the drivers seat a plate is riveted on, this is the "M" plate and it contains the VIN. Also in the engine compartment below and to the right of the voltage regulator the VIN is stamped into the metal. The vin plate visible through the windsheild was nothing more than a courtesy plate. The title needs to match the vin number stamped into the body metal in the engine compartment.
