most can be bought new these days...

over riders a bit harder to find
there were many different types..

Normal manual 68 beetles are swing axle ..

My 68 automatic has IRS rear suspension..

they have front disc brakes..
collapsable steering column [safety feature]

cheers guys,

yes bernie, tyres on em'.
vw cool has bought them, and he won't be able to pick them up, so i suggested he might employ your services to deliver them to newie on your next pass.
think i might have found some overiders, but i have just been told there are a few different types depending on year. live and learn.

cheers josh
