VW Type 1 ‘Beetle’ Shell - a photo on Flickriver

            A heavily stripped Volkswagen Type 1 ‘Beetle’ bodyshell, sitting on trailer. Not much to go on from this one but judging by the side-mounted fuel cap surround, it is at least a 1968+ model. RHD, presumably a UK market-specified export model. Found on an industrial estate/scrapyard in East Yorkshire, UK.
