Can any one tell me what year this chassis number on a Beetle relates to

195881782.

When I check on some web sites it tells me that 65 year Beetles should have a number starting 115??

thats an unusal number are you sure the 9 isnt a badly stamped 1.

looks like your getting a move on with it I see that you've got the parts for your front sorted.

Just checked the number again and its definitley a 9
It has an asterix at the end too.

No is - 195881782*

NFI what it all means.

Nick still chasing the panels. The one from Bendigo didnt work out.
I had a front clip that I bolted on to support the tank , so i could drive it outta the shed. (and do a few sneaky laps of the street)

Thanks dak dak. Glad I got that straight.
Aussie numbering must be different to the rest of the world ?

Dean the 9 stands for Australia... and its a 65 but i think someone has changed the chassis or body as it should be a Rag top roof like mine if it has a 65 chassis.

What head lining material does it have if any...
Whats the date on back of speedo and fuel gauge
whats the top of the front seats look like ??
what are the date stamps on the wheels.
