I recently picked up a 1966 European Standard. I have learned there are many differences that occurred during these years with the standards.

If anyone has a 66 standard that is in original condition or restored as original that could help me out with some photos and answers to a few questions that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I once took these pictures from a site in Germany. It is a 1200 A model from 1966 (that was at the time the most standard model in Europe):

According to the advert it had only 38.000km on the speedo.

And some other picture, of which I don't know the date:

Hope this helps you.

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for. This is the only car I've seen with the mid64 to 67 bumper color still intact. It's a silver with some green in it.
