Hi
There are some wiring diagrams on the samba http://www.thesamba.com
I find the early wiring diagrams to be very hard to follow as all the wires run parallel in the diagram, have look at a later wiring diagram from say
72 or later Beetle.
You could easily have your car wired as a 72 or later Beetle if your staring with a blank canvas. I wired my 73 Beetle as a 76 Golf with 16 fuses,
side parkers, intermitent wipers etc
For a stock engine you will only need power for the coil +, oil light wire and generator light wire.
Steve
