With NSU RO 80 wheels :) Not the K 70-version, because the outer edge is plain and polished. They are usually called Fuchs-Felgen, but they were made by Kolbenschmidt. And they aren't alloys, because made from magnesium.

Strange... the rear corner windows were dropped on the 1964 model... But indeed the front indicators are 1964+. Is this just a mongrel ? Or maybe something Brazilian ?

I think about a mongrel. There are faked Sambas existing, where a later Brazilian top was mounted on the platform of a T1 Bus or Transporter. Axles and probably the engine aren't original any more, too.

Curiously, there is a lockable gas cap cover :think:

Looks like in any beach at the Mediterranean sea (according the video).

K70 in Cuba: Link to "retrorides.proboards.com"

About halfway down the page. Ingo may not appreciate the customised (Lada?) front. Indeed I only recognised it as one as the guy said it was a K70.

:wow: Thnaks for that! :beer: Yes, the basis was a 1971-model. But not only the lamps and grille are from the Lada, the axles, too. So suspension and engine probably, too, If yes, than the whole transmission had to be changed, because single items doesn't fit.

:think: How were these European cars from the 70ies and 80ies coming to Cuba? Generelly only COMECON-made stuff was brought there in that times and all Western cars were pre-1961.

:beer: Thanks, too! But it isn't the goldmetallic one, my plate-fellow (the guy, who will travel with me to the DPRK in October) has spotted two years ago. And which karoomay has tried to find, when he was mack home last year.

Then perhaps there are still two K70s in Syria. :)

Unfortunately it's right now not really easy to get more informations, and the owners have surely other problems :/ The Syrian Classic Car Club is a member in the http://www.fiva.org/EN/index2.html Someday in the later future I may contact the chairman.
