Facts: Red ragtop beetle, must be a '60 or '61, swedish, Fuchs wheels, licence plate BLD 428 What I want to know: Owners full name, year of the car, maybe engine displacement 2.) Facts: Splitwindow beetle, purple with yellow engine and other yellow parts. Was very famous in the early 90s. What I want to know: Owners full name, year of the car, maybe engine displacement More questions tomorrow! ;D Cheers guys, Georg Title: Re: Need some information about scandinavien Volkswagen Post by: Rune on September 08, 2006, 07:24:33 am The red one sounds like Petter Carlbergs car..

Engine cc? I found a picture on the net from Bug-Run 2004, where the car got a price: (http://www.bugrun.com/images/racing04.gif) The man who owns the car now is a man called Tord Ekman....maybe some swedish guys here know him? It says that the car is based on a 67, not sure about the engine size. But i think the original engine that was in the car in the 90's ,is replaced.

It was based on a '59 and had a 3liter type4, if I recall correctly... I might still have the mag... ::) Ole Title: Re: Need some information about scandinavien Volkswagen Post by: Zach Gomulka on September 12, 2006, 17:15:30 pm I think you are right.
