Cool Erich! I got a very similar Schuco VW bug for christmas when I was very young. I still have it! Mine is blue and has a wind up key and a steering setting on the rear bumper. Seems like it is said to run 20MPH. A quite old toy I kept all these years and still displays proudly in my toy case!! Walt

Got this Schuco too. One wheel was missing. Someday I went to a flea market and i found a similar car with only one wheel. I asked the seller if i can have the wheel only but he told me that I have to take the whole car. But the price was to high for me. Later this day I found a guy who had only 4 wheels for the car but no body. So I asked him to buy the car together and split the price. Got the missing wheel with the center screw for half the price now. So we both have complete cars now. - ErichEdited by - Erich on October 02 2010 3:12:22 PM
