Hi all,

last week I purchased a Split Window Beetle from November 1950. A Standard bug coming with export elements/parts.

I know that this one has been imported from the US and has now been offered by a classic dealer in the Netherlands.

Yesterday when diving through this board I found a thread from 2013 where (I'm very shure) actually this/my Split Window is shown!:
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=561827

... same side mirrors, same individual anthracite color, same interior, same centered front window antenna.

So my question is, if anyone knows this Split Window bug or even it's pre owner.

Thanks a very lot in advance and best regards.
Andrew

Apparently, it was owned by "Cliff", and thesamba user "humthatbus" knows him.
See:

Found through google image search and with additional search criterium: "site:thesamba.com".
