Anybody have pics of a bench seat in the front of a bug instead of buckets. Just curious.

It could be intersting shifting gears, since that setup requires you to reach between the legs of the person sitting next to you in order to do so

is it safe to assume this is a "no heater" set-up?

The heater knob in that year would be up by the shift lever.

yeah but that car is a 65-66, bigger side windows started in 65, I think if it had a decklid and rear bumper the tail lights would not be as obvious

I saw the white car in Readers Rides in Volksworld, the park brake has been moved to the left of the seat and the cable run through the heater channel. Hope that clears up the confusion......
