Mystery Man ◊ 2020-08-07 22:55	Aftermarket sidemarker; either modified ex-army or simple civil version, so probably not a less high German 'Wolf'. Anything else what's visible is less revealing, so 1979 by default without other shots (what is not that likely for an almost blurred 1star car...) EDIT: Indeed a brief scene. Couldn't figure out details or plate (probably fake anyway like the others in the movie) on TV, but enough to see it is indeed a civil version. -- Last edit: 2022-07-02 00:13:14
