Early 60's Beetle with s/roof
I often see an old guy driving along Pirie St, Adelaide, in a cream coloured early Beetle with what looks to be a factory sunroof. It also has its
original 4 digit number plates. It would make the perfect Rat look bug, if that was your thing. But would also make a good project (a few dings and
a little rust here and there).

This 'lil bug isn't a ragtop, it appears to have sunroof similar to the ones Porsche put in the 356.

The number plate had 4 digits, white on black. It would be perfect if the digits were 2276, but I don't think they are.
