@retrospectkid Type 1 is the original Beetle and Karmann Ghia (rear engine with stand up cooling fan) Type 2 is the microbus, vans etc; Type 3 is the "Squareback Sedan" (Station Wagon) Fastback and Knotchback (Rear engine with flat fan, giving the car TWO trunks, as the engine was under a panel in the trunk< similar to where most cars keep the spare tire now) Type 4 was the 411/412 , basically an "improved" type 3 (but with new styling and ugly as sin)

[brighteyefilms]

@retrospectkid yeah the type 2 and 3s are not beetles at all. go to thesamba website and they show the differences.

[TwinklyZulu]

Do beetles that originally don't have a radio still have the outlets for them

(places you plug a radio into) or not?

[brighteyefilms]

@TwinklyZulu They will still have the hole in the dash for them to go into. Some bugs that didn't have a radio originally might not have an antenna, so you would have to drill holes.

[Shoknifeman]

@TwinklyZulu My Dad's '60 had no radio, there was a body coloured rectangular metal plate where the radio would have been

[Shoknifeman]

@TwinklyZulu Cars without radios had a rectangular metal panel that covered the hole in the dash, it featured chrome trim to match the trim on the rest of the dash

[brighteyefilms]

No, 1959 bugs still had the old 36hp engine. 1200 engine did not come into the bugs till '61.

@brighteyefilms you say 59's had a 1100 still? my 59 has a 1300cc motor from a 65 beetle the prev. owner put a 1965 bug 1300 engine in WEIRD but im keeping this as a 1300 1959 bug

[brighteyefilms]

@PeteAndJakee Well 59s had an 1192cc engine and 65s has the same but a 40hp.  1300s didn't come till 66.

[PeteAndJakee]

@brighteyefilms well my 59 has a 1966 1300 cc engine weird

[xKAOTIXx]

@PeteAndJakee prolly swapped into it at a later date. who knows

[herbienbrian]

actually brighteyefilms they first introduced the 1200 in 61 but untill about mid 62 they still had the 1100 as an option.
