Does your 67 have the later larger DIN sized radio aperture?
Blaupunkt made radios to that new standard. I believe these listed Radios were all transistor and more compact than the earlier ones with a seperate power pack based on valves.
If a US LHD bus you could examine thesamba.com threads for US aftermarket radios.
First search the Forum in the "For sale" threads from Rich Oakley. He sells Blaupunkts of all ages. Some as fitted by VW with VW knobs/ logos.

I have a 67 only blaupunkt I bought from Rich about 6 weeks ago. It’s FM, works perfectly and in really great condition. I’ve managed to fix the one already fitted so PM me if you’re still looking.

I assume for your LHD Westy. There is a US Bendix Sapphire in the "For sale" thread
