They are og Samba pictures when it was on sale here:

I don't have any more pictures than those you see here.

Surely the French dealer you bought from would have that sort of information or maybe you will strike lucky and someone from WA will recognise the car.

No sorry I don't. The pictures I posted were from a DVD that has information about Ghia Lowlights. They are available from "Broadacus" but only contained the pictures of your car and not the other details of the Samba advert.

I know I saw that car for sale here on The Samba. It was listed about 4 years ago by a private party and the car was located here in Southern California... I believe it was Pomona or Ontario, California. Then about 3 months later I saw it on a French VW Website for sale.

I know it was the same car because of the unique colored vinyl and velour interior and the distinctive exterior paint color.

It does have the Washington plates, but the PO probably never transferred the car into his name and left the Washington plates on the car when it was sold here in California.

I would think that the Dealer you bought it from has this information, but the Dealer probably doesn't want you to find out from the PO what he paid for the car.
