Ingo ◊ 2019-02-02 16:29	1974 Sedan (short front, elephant foots, four vents, high bumper).
130rapid ◊ 2019-02-02 17:18	1976 Silver Metallic?
tore-40 ◊ 2019-02-02 17:42	Looks like a Euro/non-US 1972+ body (tall rear window, no banana vents) but also seems like a US raised bumper but painted black? Front bumper removed, fiberglass front wings? If US-spec 1973+ '1303' taillights, elsewhere 1974+. A shot of the apron would verify a newer US model
Ingo ◊ 2019-02-02 17:56	@tore-40: yes, it seems to have this "Baja Bug" front - but it's the shorter and flatter non-McPherson-front anyways, so no Super Beetle. And the 1971+ body without banana vents, used for the 1200, was not plain in that area as the 1968/69-body. It has a beading as implied banana vents: Link to "www.autobild.de" -- Last edit: 2019-02-02 17:56:42
tore-40 ◊ 2019-02-02 18:43	Yes, by the taller window, they just had to be there even if I can't see the indent. Also why I don't see this as a US model, but not a 1303, indeed, that was why i pointed out the taillights would be 1974+. Rubber trim seems to be all black like a 1200, or also like a basic US Sedan (but again, no banana vents)
