1953-57. When came the first metallic paint, 1955? Btw.: VW was unable to offer metallic paint in respectable quality until the end of the 70ies.  This one above from the 50ies was worse, the following ones, too. |

Metallic blue since March 1953, but I'd say this is rather Polar Silver since March 1955. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/paintcodestype1.php |

Small oval lights with glass on the top: 1954/55, bigger oval lights with no glass on the top: 1956/1961. The lights here look like teh smaller ones. |
