Here are some more photos of 4 door Beetles.
The one posted yesterday is a Rometsch 4 door beetle with suicide doors at the rear.... these were made in 1952...
It was steel bodied... and I think Karmann or Hebmuller may have made a prototype.
The other 4 door beetles were soft tops mainly used by the police... who didn't have to say"mind Your Head" when entering the vehicle... 🙂🙂

Here are 2 photos of 4 door Beetles made by PAPLER..
These were used by German Police also...

Everyone used Beetles after the war....

Most other vehicles had been destroyed during the war....
there were the odd TIGER tanks still laying around... but Fuel was short and Tigers used Fuel rather excessively.... not to mention the marks made in Your driveway by the tigers tracks....🙂🙂
