First thing to keep in mind is that the Kombi and Deluxe models had very differnt tirm levels.
From thesamba.com:
Kombi: " Most often confused with a standard Microbus, the Kombi (model 23) is basically a Panel Bus with windows and seats. The Kombi (combination vehicle) has three windows down each side (in addition to the passenger/drivers doors) was painted in solid colors and was not fitted with any interior panels behind the front cabin area or any of the molding or trim found on a Deluxe Microbus. A middle and rear seat were also fitted to the Kombi, but there were no other interior amenities in the cargo area. It could even be ordered with a sunroof! The Kombi was used as the base model for Westfalia in the production of Campers (SO42 and SO44) as well as some Emergency vehicles."
So, the question is do you want to keep the original style, make it look like a deluxe, camper, etc ?

Orange on the bottom half
cream on top half
with cream/orange and brown flowery curtains...
Remember my mates Mum had/has one still (I think....)
The curtains for some reason stick in my mind - maybe because they were gross!!!!!!!!
My other half says the last Split he saw was Maroon & White........ The Orange & cream combi is for the bay window which was early 70's....
