Contact your local VW club (A VW dealer should know of one) they will
be happy to help. A member may even have a real one you can pull
measurements from. While most of the other air cooled types are easier
to find, the 181 is always sought after. Marge's sisters on "The
Simpsons" have a 181 as does one of the members of Congress and he is
often seen driving it around Washington DC. I never had one but when I
went back to college the second time a friend's brother did and I kept
that poor thing running.
