What years of beetles can fit onto a 1966 VW floorpan??

:bounce

I would say any other than a Super beetle. May be some adjustments here and there but many a person has put an oval on a 1976 pan

YEs any body other that a strut front end type. Both Super and L bugs wont fit a 66 pan.

YOu can fit any of the bodies onto the pan, just have to make a few mods. A super / L bug will fit, just needs a few mods up front. Granted it will then be king pin front end but hay they work better off road anyway.

Eh??? can you tell us what mods make a superbug body fit a standard bug pan? (it's news to me)

I think what Brad means is you can fit anything on anything with enough mods. You can fit a beetle body on a landcruiser chassis if you want.
