Cannibalised VW Cabriolet

A heavily-picked-over shell of a Volkswagen Type 1 ‘Beetle’ Cabriolet sits abandoned and neglected on waste ground on the Ionian island of Kefalonia, Greece. Practically every small component was stripped from this example, including any ID/VIN tags, so it is hard to determine what specific year this car was built. Probably a post-1968 model, built in the 1970s.

 

Having visited Kefalonia for 17 years, older cars such as these and abandoned “interesting” relics in general are becoming increasingly harder to find. However, there are still a few examples I find each time I visit which I haven’t previously discovered.
