Check the "Gallery" (tab link at the top of this page) for photos of 1968-79 busses. Most significant change from 1968-79 was in 1972 when the engine changed from the upright Beetle type to the flat or pancake Porsche type. The body style changed some, but not significantly. Good luck and keep coming back to this forum for more info.

If you like going slow, changing your oil, sweating in the summer, freezing in the winter, and driving a vehicle that's deadly in a frontal collision than you have found the right car!

Nothing's perfect!

Well, then you have a bay, it refers to the front windshield, being one pice as opposed to a 67 and earlier splittie with two front windshields. Jeremy
