The white one is my '76, the orange is my '70. I think Ferry might have hired all his 12 YO nephews for summer help at Karmann in the first year of production.
  When I first bought the '70 project I was thinking that some DAPO had replaced the seam sealer under two really bad repaints, but since then I've seen photos of early trunks that look as bad. Wow. Looks like they used a shovel to smear the stuff on. They sure improved over the years. |

The orange one has clearly been "tampered" with, also looks like the rear floor has been touched. Dig out that schutz gun and get some worth and practice on cardboard for correct pattern. Good luck !!

That IS factory (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |
