TheSamba.com :: Beetle VIN / Chassis Numbers

Beetle VIN / Chassis Numbers
Each chassis number is the last vehicle produced in that month.
Beginning in August, 1955, the VW model years began in August of the previous year. Example: Aug., 1955=1956 model.
Beginning in the 1965 model year (August 1964), the VIN/chassis number begins with the first 2-digits of the full model number.
Example: 11 for Beetle Sedan or 15 for Beetle Convertible
Refer to Models for the numbers. The 3rd digit is the model year, i.e. 5 indicates 1965.
The Rear Axle column refers to the transmission number, stamped into the transmission case
In instances where you see 2 rows of numbers, the top number is for fully synchromized transmissions
The bottom number is non-synchrized transmissions for Standard model Beetles

Notes for Australian Models

Beginning for 1965 model year, a "9" as the second digit prefix Beetle chassis/body number indicates an Australian built. The first digit indicates model, the third digit indicates year model. The chassis/body numbering after the third digit, were supplied from Germany. Only the second prefix changed to "9" to denote an Australian built car. Engine numbers in Australian built Beetles used the same case numbering as German built cars. The engines were not built in Australia, but imported from Germany.
Example:
Chassis # 197 488 655 would be:
1 = Type 1
9 = Australia built
7 = 1967
488 655 = Vehicle # 488 655 off the 1967 production line
