Car from the early 90's i think...bright orange sedan with detailed Fuchs. Maybe you guys remember the Bug? Can anybody post any pictures of this car?
Thank you,
Jim Ratto

I guess that I know that car as well. Did it feature beige scat (?) seats and a beige Lecarra steering wheel or something like that? It was pictured in a beetle book I own that was terribly translated from english to german. I guess the book´s title is "Superkäfer". Unfortunately I can´t find it as I have recently moved to a new adress and lots of stuff is still in boxes. Maybe Georg/DFL can help out?

Oh, I just picked up that book in October. I didn't realize that was the car. I'm too busy looking at the Berglar and Brinton's 67 in that book.
