Beskrivning
For some purists, the '58-'60 Beetles are the last true Volkswagen 'classic' models. From the '61 model year, elements such as the indicators, the 'moulded-ped' 30-horsepower engine and the partition behind the spare wheel, identical to that of the splits, will have disappeared.
Between the moment when the ovals ceased to be produced and the moment when European-market Beetles were fitted with indicators on the front wings, three years passed. Little by little, the Beetle evolves and will definitively enter the modern era with the '61 model.
Few things ultimately separate the Beetles from these three years which are in fact only transitional models (humf... "Transition model", my Beetle, what one must not hear...) between the last Ovals and the first modern Volkswagens. Indeed, as of 1 August 1960, the little VW loses its 'moulded-ped' engine and its old two-cam case with non-synchromesh first gear, its indicators, its bulged tank, its Split-style front panel, two stamped front skirt reinforcements, its rear valance in the "old style" and its manual starter (which will be missed by many of us...) to name just the most important modifications!
