Hi,

What does the ID plate in split Beetles, that is behind the spare tire say? I know that it says the year of the Beetle, the chassis #, and the cm3 of the engine that in this case would be 1.131.

Thanks

You have the 15th 1968 car there, a rare find indeed .... :wink:

Or , it's an early vert and the numbers give
1 from 5 is 4 ; taking the sqare root gives 2; so
2 x 1968 = 3936

Therefore, I deduce that the cost was less than :roll: $4000.

:D

STFU. You posted it publicly, he has every right to use it. It's not like he was making money off it anyway.

I did not mean to hurt anyone or make anyone mad. Sorry if you think I do not have the right to use your pic. I thought I could since it was in the gallery. I have already removed the pic from the forum.

Sorry

This might sound like a silly question, but what does payload mean?

The weight a car can safely carry. A term usually associated with the load bearing capacity of a truck.
