Revell 1/24 VW/Volkswagen T1 'Dr. Oetker' # 07677


The Volkswagen Style 2 is a forward-control light commercial vehicle produced in 1950 by the German carmaker Volkswagen as their second car model.
It is officially known (depending on body type) as the Transporter, Kombi, or Microbus, or unofficially as the Bus (US), Camper (UK), or Bulli (Germany).
It was given the factory name Type 2 after – and initially stemming from – Volkswagen's first model, the Type 1 (Beetle).
The Type 2 spawned forward-control competitors in the United States in the 1960s, including the Ford Econoline, Dodge A100, and Chevrolet Corvair 95 Corvan, the latter adapting the Corvair car's rear-engine design in the same way that the VW Type 2 adopted the Type 1 layout.
The 1947–1981 Citroen H Van, the 1959–1980 Renault Estafette (both FF layout), and the 1953–1965 FR layout Ford Transit competed in Europe.
Similar vehicles were also introduced by Japanese automakers, such as the Nissan Caravan, Toyota LiteAce, and Subaru Sambar.
The van, like the Beetle, has a slew of nicknames around the world, including "microbus," "minibus," and "Hippie van/bus" due to its prominence during the 1960s counterculture movement.
Due to the adoption of more strict safety requirements in the country, the final factory in the world that produced the T2 series of Type 2 halted manufacturing on December 31, 2013.
This marked the end of the era of rear-engine Volkswagens, which began in 1935 with the Type 1 prototypes and ended in 2002 with the termination of its T3 successor in South Africa.
