Back in early 70's I contacted Steve, He directed me send for a free birth certificate, (yes free) from Wolfsburg, they sent me a nice little packet which included (4) 8x11 black and white glossies of a 1953 and history of my car. Not certain but I think I was a short time member who received quarterly news letters?

I heard it hasn't been in years but I just checked the website out.  |
Far as i know ithe Volkswagen Club of America has kept going all this time since 1976
However lets not get it confused with the subject of this thread the Volkswagen Split window club of America, this club focused only on Split Beetle and also probably earlier VW’s, i dont know exactly when the Split Window club called it quits late 80’s early 90’s ? |

Sorry to wander off topic a little. I’m interested because the car is CCG military, plus two Belgian civilian owners. But the original paint makes me think it has American army connections. I’ll save that for another topic though.  |
