 %$oldcit '71 and '72 Supers had mostly the same components as the Beetle. The windshield and wiring were the same. The front sheet metal was bigger/longer. However '73 and up had a different front end. Hood, cowl, windshield, dash, wiring etc. were among the major differences. With the rounded windshield it seemed as though VW was trying to create a dash like most other cars. It also gave the impression that the car was bigger because the front occupants were further away from the windshield!  2@cent

By the way Shawn, the Super looks, well.. SUPER !!!!!!!!!

73's had "flat" windshields too. The one I sold to Marc had it. Thus the mis-type that caused this thread to be hijacked in the first place

VW rounded the windshield to comply with the new US safety regulations in 73, The feds said you had to be "x" distance from the windshield. Then they added the shock bumper a year or 2 later.
The 73 and up super is actually 1 1/2" longer than the "flat glass" supers of 71&72.
At least thats what I read...

Can't believe it's still available.. If I didn't already have a 72 Super I'd be all over it.
It's a very nice car ..  thumpup)-

If it's not gone as the weather Warms, I'd increase the price..

I think you need more exposure on this sale.  I suggest you put me on your insurance and I will drive it free of charge back and forth to Millville everyday with a for sale sign on it for you until you sell it. I naturally will cammand a small commission.

Trade for the trike.  TRADE FOR THE TRIKE!!!  Wait.....is it the trike for the trade?
Title: Re: 72 Super Beetle- Christmas Special
Post by: Baha (Shawn) on February 07, 2013, 11:01:18 PM
Unfortunately I borrowed from the "house account" when i bought the Champagne. I need to sell the Super to replenish that money.
Otherwise I'd keep it. It is a beautiful car, and runs like a top

If I traded for the trike, I'd definitely keep it, and my financier wouldn't loan me money for future projects*.
So as much as I'd love to have it...I must decline




*except for a certain Pink Nightmare...Apparently I can have all the money I need to finish it exactly the way it's owner wants it

You know Honda is offering 3 year free maintenance on their cars.  Did you throw in a free years membership with the club?

I wish the new owner the best of luck.  If this is your first VW,  welcome to the happy shiny world of smiles and fun. (Is she on the site yet?)

Thanks Paul! If you and the bride can join us for BWTB in Berlin, I'll by you breakfast.

I'm glad the Super is staying local, and we get some new friends

Nope... I made her join to get the member price!   #@rofl3

By the way... The bearded gentleman is none other than Skybus!  If you remember he was frantically trying to get his bus fixed before going of to school, which he did. It lasted for 8 months before the trans finally gave out. Anyway he was very appreciative for the help he had received and encourage Laura to join the club.

The Skybus is NOT the one we all saw down in Mullica Hill ... Its still behind his house in Pitman. It has a new owner, George,  who is currently fixing it. Maybe we'll get another new member (and camper as it is an Adventurewagen)
