VW Beetle - CAB 720 - Details Unknown

VW Beetle - CAB 720 - Details Unknown
Couldn't get as much information on this one as I would have likedas it's not lised with the DVLA.

However, I'm tagging it as being a Fifties version due to it having the Wolfsburg emblem at the tip of the front of the bonnet. This was a complex fabrication and supposedly on subsequent models the emblem was deleted.

, have particularly liked this photo

Could be, guess I won't know for definite unless I come across the owner.

Signals on top of the fenders (as opposed to lower pointed pods on '57-'58) began in 1959 for U.S. models and I believe 1960 for European models.
Wolfsburg crest was used until 1962. : ]
I don't understand the trend to lower them so much and put Porsche wheels on them.
It makes the rear wheels squat inward due to the swing axle and good luck going over speed bumps, railroad tracks, etc.
I think they look best at normal ride height just as the factory made them. : )

Really sounding like it's a Sixties Bug then! As for the lowering, the camber on the rear end on this one is decidedly odd!

I also think, it's a sixties model. Pre-60 Bugs (in .de we use to call them Käfer, what translates to bug, or beetle ;-) ) had a semaphore direction indicator, what this particular car obviously is lacking.
