caapa Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 The Type 64 known as Berlin-Rome-Berlin Coupe or VW60 K10 1939. During the development of Volkswagen KdF Prof.Porsche planned a sport version too, but the authorities desagreed. So Porsche began to develop a V10 mid engined coupe without VW parts. Later find the autorities that a sport version would be a good publicity for the VW KdF. Porsche was authorised to proceed with the concept to participate the car on the Berlin – Rome – Berlin race in 1939. Three cars were built based on VW KdF with a light and streamlined aluminium body with the VW engine boosted from 22 to 50 bhp. Because of the WWII. debut, the car was never given a chance to perform. The model is scratch built with detailed enterieur but nearly nothing to see in the ready model. It`s a pity ! Oh yes, the scale is 1:75.
