  View original topic: What year is this top for?

Hi, can someone tell me what year this top is for, it has the part number 160 52 00 29 on it. Also, any idea what a fair price would be for it? Thanks in advance.
PS. I don't need to hear it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay :wink:

A convertible top part number would start with 151, not 160. Are you sure it is for a Beetle? Or a VW?

My bad, the number is 150 52 00 29. It was with a bunch of VW parts.

That is not a VW part number. Post some more pics, maybe someone can recognise some details.

To post a pic like this:



You have to go to the pic you uploaded here:

and right click on the image. Select properties. In that window, copy the address like this:

Paste it in the message, highlight it then click on the IMG button.

Looks like a 60's era bug. Has the metal middle bow and not wood like early. The side wood is the clue as to whther its 61-64 or 65-71.

The pics on WW site are the same so no clue there, convertible specialties show no difference either and the same for Chucks convertible.

The final way to tell is the size of the rear window. I hope you have it.

Thx,

Al
