Title. What is the VIN under the back seat? A '64 VIN should probably be 6 xxx xxx.

If the title is for a '67, what VIN is on the title?


Where do you gather that's a '67?


title of this thread indicates 1967. typo maybe?

Hi all,
Took a round trip drive (160 miles) to look at this VW in Miami.
The listing price is $7000, and $5800 was the final price he was willing to sell.
Not sure why Florida has such a high price for VW.
Here are some pictures

However, the engine was very solid.
Also I noticed the stick shift is very flimsy or loose. Is this normal on the VW?

Do you guys think it will take a good extra $6k to fully fix the rust?

I rescind my previous assessment. B pillar looks like it’s shot. Walk away.
