all;
i get nothing from Google or a couple of other VW sites i've tried so thought i'd give this a whirl. i have an exhaust tail pipe that i'm trying to ID. it's an early style that does not appear to be for a VW bus or other VW application. part number 021-251-171 F. i've seen some similar numbers relating to VW applications but not the "F" suffix. the piece is NOS. i can post some pix if necessary. any help appreciated. if this is the wrong forum, please point me in the right direction.
TIA
best
jerry

Jerry,
I can say that I have never seen that part on a 914 and am 98% sure that it is for something else.

That looks like the tailpipe used on the early 914/4 1.7 W0 series engine. However the number has a different suffix (M or N), so it is not for a 914.

Jerry,

It is exhaust for the VW Type 4 (411 / 412)
