History
04.08.2011
This was also the first car of Mr. Suchy the founder of the Semafor theatre in Prague in the late 60's. The original colour was white but it had to be repainted light grey after it was covered with "kisses" drawn with lipstick as a joke. The lipstick was impossible to be removed completely.

I've found an old picture of the rusted part of the body under the back seat (it was more of a bench than a seat).
