Model information
1200 Beetle Deluxe
Info
Every now and then Trev goes on a hunt. This hunt could be for chassis numbers or registration numbers or something completely off the wall but yesterday (27-3-23) Trev went on the hunt for documentaries that might have old VWs in them and this is the result.
This footage was taken in 1973 in Dublin and the still shows an April 1962 Dublin registered 1200 Beetle Deluxe but what made Trev break out the hot cocoa earlier than normal was that the footage was taken from the inside of a Volkswagen Beetle, as can be seen in the second photo. I think the poor man is still in a lather nearly 24 hours later! It’s the simple things that keep Trev happy!
