What year model is this beetle?
I have a chassis number for a beetle and I was wondering what year model it should be.
Chassis number # 4272930.
Can anyone help because I have no idea??

Dont have any pic's but the dude who has it is trying to tell me its a 76 and I I dont think it is so I asked for the chassis number. Thats why I
asked the Q's.

mate if it's a 76 it will look like Craig's car: elephant foot lights plus front, rear and side windows like yours but with little half-moon vents
behind the rear side windows

Isn't the 3rd number in the chassis number the year? So, 7 would make it a 67 pan?
What is the front end? K+L, Ball Joint or Mac Strut?

Thanks for the help. At the time of writting the post the person who was selling the car did not have any photos and was telling me it was a 76 with
BJ front end and IRS rear, thats why I asked for the chassis number. It just did not seem to add up what he was telling me. Since I post I have
received a photo and its a Lbug, so the guy selling it is either full of $hit or knows nothing at all VW. Thanks
