I have been busy removing paint from my 72 1.7. When I bought it it was metallic blue, but the front and rear trunks, engine bay and cab floor were black. The car has been repainted in the past and I thought the black paint was a bit unusual. As I've removed the different layers of paint I've found that the black is on top of the original primer and the steel is virgin without any sanding marks etc. I don't have the Karmann plate so I'm going to order a birth certificate.
I was wondering if anyone knew how many were painted black for that year. |

In '72 black and gold metallic were optional colors ( I recall the cost at $300). The extra cost paint was nearly 8% of the total cost of an app grp car, so few were ordered. Everyone loved the black and hated the gold metallic (except me) so you have rare color. Keep it.
