Here's something found by the guy that has been digging through
Rattletrap's history.
We are aware of American Albert Klein's high mileage 1964 Beetle, but I for one was not aware at all of this car, a 1959 Beetle.:?
The vehicle historian thinks that this letter sent to
VWoA in 1968 and reproduced exacty as seen here by Volkswagen as an advert (see advert details at the very bottom) the same year, was indeed the spark that sent Tony Levy onto his record mileage Volkswagen spree regarding his Beetle 10BXK (
Rattletrap). It seems that Tony's claims regarding 10BXK began that same year.
Anyone recall this '59:?:
