rjluna2 ◊ 2011-08-17 13:35	So, this should be listed as Volkswagen Sedan 'Beetle' with 1492cc engine fitted in.
ingo ◊ 2011-08-17 13:38	It's rather a 1969-only model, because the filler cap is openable from inside - I cannot see the little finger hole on the lid. The 1968-model -here a pic of a car from August 1967- had not the cable going into the glovebox. Yes, I know, the car on this pic has the later silvermetallic coloured rims, but this was already done by the previous owner. My father had bought it in early 1973. -- Last edit: 2011-08-17 13:39:21
