Hello All,
I was inspired by the eariler posting of the 1949 ragtop, so I wheeled my 1952 out for some "beauty shots". It's an original rag car, repainted the factory color. Production date is approx. 1 month before the start of zwitter production. Restoration is almost complete, it just needs bumpers, running boards, the engine installed, and a few odds and ends.
The rear view mirror was an NOS, in the box "saturn" brand. The box showed it attached to a 53-55 ragtop beetle. The antenna is a real hirschmann red tip (not a repro) purchased off ebay.de for a whopping $9 US. It was NOS with the tag still attached; the seller had no idea what it was for, and just listed it as an "autoantenne fur oldtimer"
Other accessories include rosenthal dash vase, and telefunken IA50. I JUST found a correct power pack for it after years of searching. It was actually the hardest part to find for this restoration. Again, ebay.de for about $90.
thanks for looking and enjoy.
