1958 by the samll chromed ribs at the air intake. Edit: Not so easy car in fact. The ribs were indeed used since 1958, but not in all cars. The rounded indicators (like these ones) were used since 1959, but together with front wing decoration placed lower and here it is still too high... Pity there is no better view of the rear wheel arc - since 1959 it was a bit bigger. -- Last edit: 2012-09-18 15:44:57 |

I wonder when the wipers became parallel. ![]() |

Belive it had to be changed during the 1959 too. So we have this 1958 brochure, where car still has oppositely-pivoted wiper blades (and old rear fenders/side deco.): http://sestsettrojka.euweb.cz/t603cz.htm (the rubber on bumper looks for black, but in fact it was white/grey, what is to see on different pics from this photo session) The same car appeared in brochure dated for 1959: http://madeinczechoslovakia.org/2011/10/tatra-603-advertising-brochure-1959/ Then we have something like that: http://www.carstyling.ru/resources/classic/1958_Tatra_603_1.jpg A car with black rubber in overriders, but still old wipers and rear fenders. According to this list of changes, black rubber on overriders started to appear in 1959 (but white one had to be still to meet judging by the period pics). And then there are for example these pics dated for 1959 - both cars on them already have parallel wipers and new rear fenders/side strip: Link to "www.tatra-club.com" Link to "s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com" The cars with old wipers are to see also on EXPO '58 pics. -- Last edit: 2017-02-07 19:16:11 |
