....very nice (I think I have one - I'll have to check ).   Those rims are not that common; were they optional "mags?"  🤔

Nice looking model. I drove a VW Beetle twice. It was the car I learned to drive a manual transmission.

"It was the car I learned to drive a manual transmission."

The last time I drove a manual on the street was c.1980 when I borrowed my friend's Vega to pick up a pack of cigarettes.   Honestly, I doubt I could even get around the block today if I was forced to drive a stick.    😔 😔 😔

....yep, I knew I had one - well, something similar anyway.....   I like David's coupe (and those wheels ) much better though.  👍 👍

Wasn't it called the Super Beetle because it had the curved windshield ? I swear a kid on my mail route bought one. We used to talk about it when he was home and customizing it.
