arnt they suppose to know what they are talkin about

there was 3 dubs on there

a 57 rag with semis that he called traficaters, he said it didnt have a sealed head light he said the oval was the first back window he said the tail lights were rare

a 56 single cab he was mostly right on this one except he was saying 38 and 42 hp

is it considered a unibody?

and what he said was a 64 vert but it wasnt
it had snow flakes batwing stearing wheel and and early oval tank (which they cut for a sending unit)
then he said not alot had gas gauges

so this is a 58-60

Here's the list of what they are running (or ran) through. Current Las Vegas stuff should be up top.

I like how the 57 comes with a single "axle" trailer.

There is also a 21 window that isn't showing up on the above link (I think it hasn't went through yet???)

i just saw those three in a row

i mean get it a lil right at least haha

yeah, a bus is a unibody.

if its a 57, that should be snowflakes, no? they really aren't that rare. I have a set lying around from my 61 deluxe baja.

oval was the first back glass? I guess he's never heard of a split oval, lol. Even most of the prototypes had a back glass. cept this 37:


I believe the 38 were the first prototypes to have a back glass, if i remember correctly, i may be wrong tho. a lot of the old pics of pre 38's didn't have a back glass.

yea i know haha they need some schoolin haha

A euro 57 would have had both snowflakes (that didn't blink) and semaphores. Euro's had semaphores all the way up to 1960.

I believe in the UK, they were refered to as Traficators or direction indicator = Semaphore. Yes a bus or SC/DC would be considered a unibody.
