On the inside of a split, right below the rear window is sheet metal stamping of a horizontal bar with one upright in the center. Is it older splits or standards that have three upright stampings? And when? Thanks! :roll:

Check the last couple of pages in Splitsville, if I remember correctly, the KDFs had 3 upright stampings..but check the other thread for reference.

Hes right. a KDF car will have 3 stampings, later just one stamping.

Does anyone know the date? I believe they changed at mid-'49. Who's got an early '49? Thanks Germanpride.
