Can anyone identify this Bekowa 9 slat rack?
Is it for a Beetle or a notchback.?
What year would it be from?
Thanks.

If the legs are 44" apart at the gutters it's for a bug

Thank you,
But just wondering about the stick on label that has 66H printed on it with a permanent marker. Is that original and is it meant for an early 50s beetle like all 9 slat Bekowa racks?
Couldn’t find what a 66H label would be for.
I have seen the stick on labels that had printed details on them but not with a marker pen.
I know 6H, (For Beetle with wood slats) but 66H?
Is it a later rack from the 60s with 9 slats?
I thought the original racks with 9 slats from the 50s had a metal label riveted to the from of the tube, which I have on my other. Not stick on.
