993cc

Typ 34..

Looks like a UK plate with GB plaque as well. If plate ends in C it's a 1965 registration. These were very unusual here - too expensive so only sold in penny numbers. I think I read somewhere that Karmann only made RHDs in small occasional batches and then scattered them round the world to whichever other RHD countries could find buyers.

Ahh I even googled Karmann just because the profile cutout seemed similar. Typ 3 didn't show up. Thank you!

That's a VW Typ 3 Karmann-Ghia:

From a 1970 doc "Making of the Private Life of Sherlock Holmes". Totally stumped by this beauty. Thanks in advance!
