But then I noticed the "edgy" rear wheel arch, or whatever it´s called, on the earlier models it´s more flat. On the 1966 models they mounted a rear axle with wider track and due to that made a change also on the rear fenders. It looks to me that this one has that modification.
DynaMike 2008-01-10 23:55	It's true that the [B] had somee 4 cms wider track, but I don't think the wheel arch had changed for that. All versions except the Caravan had different rear lights I've no idea wether it will be possible to see the difference...
