Golf Mk1 Convertible Prototype

I came across a couple of good photos of the original prototype for the Golf Cabriolet while researching early VW water-cooled models tonight. Most notable in the prototype is the absence of the now iconic basket handle roll bar. The rear part of the body is notably different from the final production design. The rear deck seems tidier than the production model as well. Click on the images to visit the two respective sources.
