25b Volkswagen 1200

Post by johnboy »

The brace on the baseplate is only listed on models with green windows on Nick's site, this one has clear windows. Does anyone else have one? I'd always thought that the clear windows were replaced a while before the baseplate had the braces added. I'm not sure if this is an error on the table. I suppose it's also possible that some older window units were unearthed and used up later on in production.

Today discovered
Are there other such models with the additional metal tongue?

I suspect it's simply paint build up.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

I have 5 of this model. Oddly enough, all 5 are clear window. One with the "volkswagon" spelling, the other 4 with the correct spelling. None have the reinforcements.

Thanks for checking, I'm hoping another may be found :)
