I loved the expressions of the people. It says so much. That little girls is really torqued!
It reminds me of this picture I posted. Kids are so entertaining.

It's good to see kids haven't changed.
I'm a bit confused about those hubcaps - the V and the W seem *really* separated - like something you might see from aftermarket where they are trying to get around a trademark. Am I just looking at it wrong, or is that they way they were made? _________________ -Harry

Didn't have a truck when I started my sign business in 1972. My '67 Beetle was my main mode of transportation. Loved that bug. Retired last year after 50 years. Now have more fun and time to play with my VW's today. _________________

They look normal to me. Maybe it's just ther reflection. It also could have been the stencil they used to paint the black.
I never knew about the factory two-tone. You learn something new here every day. _________________ We are striving for perfection, to make our cars run forever, if possible.
