Hans Glas knew in 1963 that WAS was guilty to his customers with the 1600 convertible: Sportiness was paired with the elegance of the body line in Italy with the design of the Italian carbody shop, no matter whether the cabriolet was driven open or closed. Later on, the BMW program should include only a few cabrios of the BMW 1600 GT before the fate of the smart glass body was finally sealed. With the BMW 1600 GT Cabriolet, Wiking is a nearly forgotten classic from the sixties. After the takeover of the company, BMW continued the sporty range of glass from autumn 1967 to summer 1968 - it should not go beyond the character of a proverbial phase-out model. The fact that after the takeover of Dingolfinger car manufacturer Glas the new owners of BMW placed their brand logo on the tip of the hood effectively and also denounced the brand-typical kidney optics on the radiator was only logical.
