The stylish BMW reminiscence of the glass past
A parade example for a picture-perfect convertible classic: Red body with black interior - timelessly noble! However, only a few convertibles of the BMW 1600 GT should be made before the fate of the trim glass body was finally sealed. With the BMW 1600 GT Convertible, WIKING is an almost forgotten classic from the 1960s. From the autumn of 1967 to the summer of 1968, BMW continued the sporting series of glass after the takeover of the company, but it should not go beyond the character of a proverbial end-of-life model. Accordingly, the approved models already remained rarities at production times on German roads. At the same time, the Italian bodywork manufacturer Frua had given the glass 1300 GT Convertible in its 1963 version at the IAA all the aesthetics required by a modern convertible for a sustainable market impulse. It combined the values of sporty dynamics and comfort - the open-air driving was simply fun. The fact that after the takeover of the Dingolfing car maker Glas the new owner of BMW effectively placed their brand logo on the hood tip and the brand-typical kidney optics at the radiator pranced, was only logical.
