ingo ◊ 2012-08-15 13:19	Late 60ies 1200 Sparkäfer (upright headlights) The bumper is older. Although the 1968-1973 1200 had kept the pre-1968-bumpers, the small overriders weren't used any more.
130rapid ◊ 2012-08-15 13:38	What about black wipers?
ingo ◊ 2012-08-15 13:41	I don't bother about them. This means not much. You could purchase both versions. The black was mainly sold aftersales market.
ingo ◊ 2012-08-15 13:44	Is it really the upright 1968+ headlight? Or it's just bad to see from this angle? The shape of the fender irritated me a bit. If it's the older version, the car is a 1967 MY (otherwise I don't know, if this slightly blue-ish grey colour was already in the 1967 programme). Also in this case the black wipers means nothing. -- Last edit: 2012-08-15 13:44:22

ingo ◊ 2012-08-16 14:10	Upright headlights? O.k., then it's definitely a 1968+ 1200, pimped with an older bumper and aftersales market black wipers.
