tore-40 ◊ 2014-09-16 20:00	1302 had trailing arms and drivshafts with two CVs each in the rear. This one seems to not have them?
boys_bible ◊ 2014-09-16 20:07	@tore-40: very difficult to see, because it's not clear enough when making this picture.
tore-40 ◊ 2014-09-16 20:15	In short: A trailing arm wouldn't change camber angle like this one does, would it?

tore-40 ◊ 2014-09-16 20:29	With four sets of slots cooling the engine, it seems, it would still be a 1972-73 but a 1300 Wait for @ingo to wake up?

From this angle the shape of the front wings would be the best way. These here are looking narrow, so I would go for 1300, too. The colour is "sumatragrün", so 1972/73
tore-40 ◊ 2014-09-16 21:57	@ingo: The older IRS with its single joint would give you a 'slight' change in camber while the swing axle or trailing arm would not, right? In this shot you can see the wheel is tilted. Or, rather, the car is actually tilted, but the wheel is not, due to its load. -- Last edit: 2014-09-16 21:58:28
