the panel areas seem narrower between the skylites than on a regular DLX. I have seen that on quite a few coachbuilt buses ( where they simply used narrow flat steel or aluminum stock as a glass divider).


it also has a "special" bumper. i think the skylights are not the stock ones.

Barndoor Deluxe postcard from Austria, I did not translate this.
If someone is a native speaker and can do that easily (and undoubtedly more accurately), feel free to do so. Thank you.

I don't think so, enlarging as much as possible shows the reflections in the mirrors and paint appear to match the surroundings...

OK…looks like a very clever Wolfsburg retro photoshoot!
Does Wolfsburg still look like this?

yes, I think the factory does look like that - I wonder if it has a protection order on it as a historic building? but you might have to touch-out some signs, bollards etc. that circular planter in the heb shot looks more recent than 1950. fallersleben still looks historic.

My faux retro photo.
Ricky's lowered deluxe and the 2018 sign give it away, but I love the old factory vibe.

This is from a German couple writing their 2 kids a postcard from their summer vacation in 1965.
