Spin any hubcap & you see jack sh!t.
But the swaztika on the early hubcaps is real enough.
The Volkswagen was, after all, commissioned by the nazi's
Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

I don't believe any of it.... old wives tale...
I don't think even Hitler would have thought of producing a VW sign to look like a Swaztika when spinning.... and certainly NOT Porsche
Himself.... It IS ILLEGAL to have anything with a SWAZTIKA on it in Germany with a mandatory Jail term... so I was told by the curator of the War
Museum in URALLA [I think] He has many of them on Display including genuine flags etc.... He rides a genuine War BMW motorbike & sidecar in German
war colours... So there wouldn't be anyone driving around with Swaztika hubcaps in Germany.....:o:o:o:bounce
