VW 1600S INFO: PLEASE VERIFY

[OD_1]

Hi All,

Can someone please verify if the below information is true... I found it on the web while trying to find some info on the 1600S...

[*]The badge is made by Injex, it´s plastic and the characters are painted silver Keep it safe as these are No Longer Available (NLA) from VW South Africa.

[*]According to the official VW South Africa historian there are no precise figures of how many were built and the estimate is 2000 - 3000.

[*]The Rear fenders (4 pop rivets) and bonnet (unique to this model 1302 & 1303 will not fit) - NLA.

[*]The original seats have headrests, which differ to the headrests of other non South African built bugs

[*]The seat rails are the old type without the middle guide, which corresponds to the king and link pin floorpan.

Thanks guys.... wow... now i'm seriously fearful of a front collision... *Gulp

... and what a surpise that only 2000 - 3000 were made... probably less than half still around...

I know this is off topic but can i somehow get a mold made of my bonnet just in case it gets dented?
