that body is later than 1968...

the side rear vents didn't arrive until 1971..

the NON super beetles were also sold as 1300 beetles in 1973-74..

this has a 1300 gearbox.....
and they had drum brakes instead of front discs..

so maybe it was a 1300 beetle..

subisupa, sent you a PM, genuinely interested. If you can give us a call back / reply with phone number would be great. :blush:

It's a 71 Import 1300 povopack.
More importantly it has a lot of good stories attached.

Sadly I haven't the clams to get it back. :sniffle:

Please let me know where and to who it goes off to.

Hi Subisupa,
I am looking for a Baja, is this one still for sale? or has it sadly sold? If so do you know of any others for sale?
