Found this number down near the spare wheel well:

It matches the serial number pattern of a '74 standard - but as mine is a super, it can't be that a panel from another car has been used at some point; is it a part number?

Oh cool, so does that mean that mine is the 7,421st of its type built by VWA?

Sadly I don't have any books for the car.
