I know nothing about VW's (and am probably about to prove it,) and half the pic seems to be missing on my computer, but I.m going to say it's a K70.
Currently over 35 years worth of fixing 35 boxes.
Hoping to reach 65 years worth of fixing 65 boxes.

It's a mid-life four-round-headlight version. Same grille. Early cars wore a pair of oblongish lights.

Yay. An excuse to put up a picture of a K70:
The wheels on the one in Brian's photo collection, what are those? They have the look of the Cosmics about them but I'm guessing that, being on a tasteful old VW, they won't be that obvious. Especially when they appear to be attached to 5 stud hubs.

They've been remade.
What you want is the
JBW Cosmic Alloy Wheel
They look fantastic
But is it really better than a proper NSU K70, on the proper wheels...

Hello all,
The K70 is mine and yes it looks way better than a stock one.
It also now goes around corners without swapping lanes!
