80 and earlier cars were german. 81 and later were american or mexican or what have you...

ive heard of wolfsburg cabbys, but thats it. never heard of a normal rabbit being a wolfsburg.

well if pre-80 rabbits were built in Germany.. at there Wolfsburg plant.. would it not be a Wolfsburg ;) ?

What classifies a Wolfsburg? I would think any car that came out of that plant.. as anyone from Westmoreland, Pennsylvania.. are Westies eh?

Did all the rabbits built in Westmoreland come with the rectangle headlights? and did all the Wolfsburg rabbits come with rounds? Curious I am.

dunno about all of them, but i know a good majority were that way. american cars got american lights. euro cars got euro lights.
