Hitler and Mr Porche were pretty good buddies. He did a good sell job to hitler, and hence the beetle was born!

No Waiters in the Pics - they were NAZIS-
The fellows in white coats weren't waiters. The one with the patches on His white coat is an officer of some kind, and the other one in a white
dust coat , is probably an engineer ..... I wonder what ever happened to that model????
and its a sad fact that without BRITISH intervention After the war... the Beetle would NEVER have been a Success, and Yes, I've read the books
& seen the photos.... I have a collection of VW & Porsche books.... and a few Models too..
Many VW owners like to know as much as they can about the history of "the little wonder of the world":thumb

Thanks guys for the correction. I had the same argument with the person who told me it was 8.
I couldn't believe that it was only 8 either.
Now I know fer sure.

Well 12 is only 4 more Still doesn't seem enough, but there you
go.
Hey got that Woody Allen movie 'Sleeper'
I walk by this cult movie store in Elizabeth St every day and had never noticed the sign before. Well it is up a narrow flight of stairs between other
shops, very dark and smells of stale body odour:puke
I thought this place would have it for sure and it did. Sweet!! Bought 'Soylent Green' while I was there, apparently very rare. It's a
classic.
Still haven't mentioned the war |

Hi
The last pic with Adolf looking at the Beetle, I know a guy in Australia who has one of those models, one of 3 I think, it was given to ?? Hartnet
when he went the factory after the war when the ??? Hartnet went over to look over the factory to see if it was a vaible car for Australian
production. ??? Hartnets grandson gave it to my friend. I dont want to mention my friends name here without his permission.
I hope get some picturs of the model soon for the Toy Department in Zeitschrift, the Club VeeDub Sydney mag and they will be posted on the club site
as well.
