Haha ;D I normally look for distinguishing features, this has 1950's british front wheels, 1960/70's italian rear wheels, a french rear end and a possibly swedish front end ,with early kit car doors. No idea, yet.

I new you'd get there Mark :D Really interesting car! Looking at the pictures looks quite small but its wide enough to seat 3 adults on the bench seat with luggage.

Not a Rometsch, but it is VW based, and I think it was made in 1958. It is a one off.
