I think you may need to take some camera lens distortion into consideration...

Great pic! Is there any higher resolution image of this shot? |
Guess it is a prototype or very very early one. Note the heat ???. They are very small, as seen on the 1949 prototype on the Volkswagen museum in Wolfsburg.
I would love to se that picture in high resolution.

Great pics, thanks!! ...I think it must be in Germany: the truck on the right, behind the gas-bottle, is 99% sure an OPEL Blitz...

Corner window kombi in one photo, coachbuilt big side window bus in the other. Looks like both in the Zell am See photo have front overhead windows as well. Where are they now? _________________ Founder and Chairman Emeritus, ECMSAS
