Two suction cups, some cardboard and pics out of 50s magazines. Complete.
I guess that is how this was done.

True. But if they used to make windshield sun shades back in the day just for Beetles it would be nice to have an original one for my Beetle. Especially with those movie stars on it.

nice one and never seen. The pedal car made by Hebmuller and gifted on the 100.000 km treffen. It was strapped on the back of one of the prototypes. Any chance to get a high res scan? Thanks.

| Every once in a few dozen pages I have to again say, thanks Blue Baron for the seemingly bottomless source of pics you have. Always nice to see happy people standing next to their Beetles. |

Little overkill there.
You will have noticed the second bumper and the second line of side trim.
But did you notice that he even sports two sizes of those overriders?
And the accessory vent window is also really cool.
