we didn't get factory imports till 53-4 so anything earlier was brought in privately at some stage. I might be wrong but I doubt there are more than 24 pre '50 vw's over here. |

|

Hi all,
no progress yet on this Type 92 KdF since I have prioritized the 82e which I found in Moscow a few years ago and bought it last year. It is now in restoration with Jacek.
I found a very nice and original KdF gas tank with holder for the rooftop KdF. That was luck ...
I am posting more on Facebook right now of my restorations (KdF Type 82e and 1946 French Army beetle).
Best regards

The offer on mobile.de is a fake to trick people.
The rooftop car is in my garage, safe and cosy and is waiting for a full restoration. Not for sale at all!

Only now I realised that this picture was not posted on this forum...
The roof-top Kdf wagen with number plate from Kaliningrad. The picture taken ~1970.
Also, anatomy of what soviet cars parts were fit to the car.
