@Otti..

Year 1974 and 1975 (till mai/june 1975) the tail looked like this.



The 'swallow' is about 2 cm deep and round edges.

Below you see a swallowtail from 'late'1975


There is the 'swallow' about 1 cm deep.

OK, you are knowing now that your car was built in 1975, but when you write the VIN number of it here (after writing the VIN, push on the button "Analysieren") you can even see in which month.

Btw. the airfilterbox on your engine isn´t the original on a car from that year, on the pic. below you can see an original box.

This car´s first registration ( i know, your car) was June 1975, so it was built in May/June 1975 or even earlier...

DubDoctor 23-01-2009 23:02

Loving your mk1, hope you complete it.
Good luck

robertjan007 24-01-2009 01:19

Do you want 2 sell it.... ;)

chris 24-01-2009 15:24
