Hey guys

I'm not really sure what year my Beetle is.

It's registered as a 62, but i suspect it's about a 64 in actuality.

The VIN is 195211678 from the stamp under the back seat.

If anyone knows how to decode (and can) it that would be greatly appreciated! 🙂

Cheers
Dan

Yeah, i think it does. A tube that narrows down and comes out in the flat panel below the bottom of the bench?
