I don't think there is one with a 1967 on the front... or at least I have never seen one.

There is one dated August, 1966 but it has a 1966 on the front.
It has a blue/green cover and is pictured earlier in this thread.

I believe this one would technically be for the 1967 model year.

Since I can't "edit" my original post on page 1, I just added the yellow cover Type 3 "without guesswork" from Jan 1964 to my collection.

i'd love to see the full set reproduced in say a little box or as singles for use.

make them a different size or something to the og ones but make them available to all for use.

VWAG do you feel like doing something for us?

Just discovered this section...seems I am not the only tragic collecting them. I seem to be missing just the pre 1961 booklets.

I have a couple of later booklets from the V.A.G series which are 1983 editions. one for passenger cars, the other for commercials.

So far, it seems like the earliest one here is a March of 1956? Very cool!

I'm looking for the WOG jet specs on the 30pict3 carburetor for types 1 and 2 (1970 only.) It seems the '71 manual doesn't cover the previous years, and the '69 manual only covers up to the 30pict2. Could somebody post a quick picture of that page, or type it out for me?

Thanks,
Robbie

Does anyone have a 1956, or 1958, they are willing to part with? I have plenty of trade options, or $.
