G-MANN ◊ 2007-01-20 20:04	Driven by the private eye (Jon Polito) who follows the Dude around. In this scene a blue/purple Beetle can be seen among the traffic outside, could this be him? -- Last edit: 2009-10-01 01:48:40
jplemoine ◊ 2007-01-20 20:32	1968 avec des appuie-têtes (même aux USA...)?
G-MANN ◊ 2007-01-20 20:51	Someone added the entry for this car before I came here. Is this definetely a 1300? -- Last edit: 2009-10-01 00:56:17
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-01 01:32	USA spec due to large indicator. 1971 or later...
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-01 01:41	Last thumbnail has elephant foot taillight, but I don't think it is related to this vehicle... Ingo, when did this color introduced?
G-MANN ◊ 2009-10-01 02:38	Just added some extra shots to the 1st comment.
Ingo ◊ 2009-10-01 10:58	rjluna2 wrote Ingo, when did this color introduced? I guess, it's the "saphireblue" from the modelyear 1971.
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-01 13:43	That's what I thought
G-MANN ◊ 2009-10-01 13:54	Don't you want to look the extra thumbnails I added (at the top)?
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-01 13:56	I have to check that at my computer at home. I seeing now at my work that does not display pictures at your comments (blocked by the Network Department).
G-MANN ◊ 2009-10-01 14:18	Ingo?
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-10-02 00:05	@G-MANN: Okay, I am at home, I found the taillight from third picture does correspond to 1971/72 model year. As I mentioned above about the last picture doesn't match due to different taillight.
Ingo ◊ 2009-10-02 08:14	G-MANN wrote Ingo? About the last thumbnail? Yes, also for me it looks, like the Beetle there is a different one, a 1973+ version with the "elephant foot"-tail lights.
Ingo ◊ 2009-10-02 08:20	P.S. You were talking about the third thumbnail, too: no, I don't think, that this one shows a different car. I think, you can see there the US-version (I don't know, if original or aftersales market) of the smaller tail lights. It has a chromated house and side marker-lamps on the outside. These US lamp-houses are still in production (I think, in poor quality from Brazil or Taiwan), because there are European VW-freaks, who wants to have them for "pimping" theiy Typ 1. The original ones of the 70ies weren't sold outside America.
G-MANN ◊ 2009-10-02 18:25	Yes, I realise now the Beetle in the last thumbnail is not the same one, I just thought it was a funny coincidence since this private eye in a blue/purple Beetle is supposed to be following the Dude around. -- Last edit: 2009-10-02 18:26:21
