People wonder why I called it Vader...
They just assume it is because it is black,
But the real reason is because when I sit down in it,
It says" master, what is thy bidding."
Then he delivers.

Saw the pic you sent earlier. Looks good! I'd definitely take this over the GTI too. Bring it to the cruise-in Friday. Cool

Querried the Samba on the vin appears to have been built in the last two weeks of August 1962.  When did VW break the model year in 1962. I know that the first 1971 super beetle rolled off the assembly line in 22 Aug 1970, so I am wondering if the model year split was around that date for all model years...
I only ask because in the 40's the big three broke the model year much later in the year....
Thanks,
KC
