The DKW is not a convertible. Converts of these were also made by Karmann IIRC, so that explains why there are none left! Nice old car though.

Oh yes, I just noticed the windows, I am catching your roof blindness now! :lol:

Make sure you check what model rare 03's they have there too when you go back!

They always 'look' like kabs at a glance with the painted roof but rarely are, this is the beauty! I think I remember seeing one VW own too.
These are beautiful!

Just looked on Mobile.de too. 611 hits for pre 1975 Vws! And they´re all much too bloody expensive!!

That thing on the dash is probably the starter cord.

That standard is a LOVELY colour too! I had no idea they came in such great colours, I thought they were nearly all concrete :lol:

Yes, if it is L344 Rush Green as it seems, then that was the only official Standard colour available besides L225 Jupiter Grey.
It's a very yellowy, mustardy kind of light green...almost military.
The sunroof seems bright green (now that we all seem to agree on its existence!) and I'm not sure what the colours would have been for
a sunroof on a Standard. Mine's very dark grey but the canvas has been replaced when the car was restored over ten years ago.
Here's a pic of a French 58/59 Rush Green Standard.:wink:  333114908 copy.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

Lot of chrome on that thing, compared to the one I took a pic of.

That Frensh Car is probably imported from belgium or Swiss !
Those country's had chrome parts on the standards !
