I don't know what year this model was that we spotted in Flagstaff today but it looked to be in marvelous condition.
Volkswagen introduced the car to the United States in 1956. It was a product of the small VW engine, a body designed by the Italian firm Ghia and built by the German coachbuilder Karmann.
It was very popular in the United States and, apparently still is for some drivers.(I blotted out the license number to protect the owner, who wasn't around when I snapped these photos.)
