yes, it is a VW. it is a 1964 VW 1500. this specific model line started officially in 1962 and was imported to North America starting in 1963 as a stationwagon version. the fastback version was sent across the pond for the 1966 model year and the version i have was never officially imported to NA. Its nickname is the Notchback and I have been fortunate enough to own 5 of this version. 4 came out of France and 1 from Canada. This specific one and my other one pictured below came out of France. in true VW style, the engine is in the rear, but was under the trunk! the pink car is now mid-engined but the purple one still is in the stock layout for drivetrain.
thank you for you kind and warm hello.VW power... More expensive than ever!
