Sure about a real 1951-model? Perhaps it has a split-window in the back - but a good body-welder can mount this in every other VW Sedan! All other parts arent from 1951. So all windows on the side and the front are too big, not older than 1964/65. The fenders aren't from the 50ies either. And as I know, you cannot mount this kind of wheels on an original 50ies-platform. The tuning-freaks preferring for these modifications platforms of 1967+ automatic-Typ 1. At least: is there anything original VW from the body, or it's just a remake/fake, mady from glassfibre? The windows are looking very much like plastic ones. -- Last edit: 2009-02-16 14:59:43 |

I have my doubts, too. As ingo says, the windows are 1964+ and the fenders also, this being the USA. Those front fenders, IIRC, appeared on European Typ 1s in 1967 or '68. This, gentlemen, is a bitsa. |

I remember watching this episode. If I remember correctly, it was a 1958 Beetle, but I'm not 100% sure. |
