Vintage T-Shirt Forum & Community Authentication Appraisals

This may be the longest of long shots, but I'm a sucker for late 70's to mid 80's watercooled Volkswagens (think Rabbits, early Golfs & Jettas, GTIs, etc rather than bugs or busses). I'm sure there were some original VW promo t-shirts floating around out there somewhere.

One in particular I'm looking for can be seen in this VW aftermarket catalog. It's an Ocean Pacific shirt with a Pirelli tires design on the back:


Here's a poster with the same image:


If anyone has photos of period correct VW promo shirts or by some chance has this shirt in their collection feel free to post up some photos!

bumping this up to try and drum up some interest/info..

Can't help you on the specific one you're looking for but I just got a Rabbit shirt recently. Doesn't say Volkswagen on it but it has the correct Rabbit logo I believe and is age appropriate. Check it out if you're interested. Thanks

I know I've got one for a New Beetle which would almost be vintage on here. I'll ask a friend who's into VWs.

Thanks, not sure how I missed this reply originally . Not quite what I'm looking for but a cool shirt regardless.

Great, thanks for checking! If it helps, I think that catalog above is a Zender catalog (your buddy will probably know what that means). Someone, somewhere owns this shirt
