its a wonder someone isn't making those early hubcaps

I have a lot of early pictures, but looking through the forum first before posting them, so I don't look like a pain with duplicate posts etc..

"we've seen all that before etc.."

the hubcaps are available, try searching the Samba. very expensive though.

All the shows in the US and Europe regulary have displays of Wartime VW's. A Kublewagon was recently discovered in a barn in Germany after being stored since 1960.
