    what's wrong with the Super Beetles ( macpherson strut )? other than the super shimmy that can be cured.. problem with my finding '67- down's is, there few and far between, and expensive when found..

    the '74 Super I found is pretty nice, and $1,500. as I understand, they have 1600 dual ports which are good for economy.

    I found a '73 1302 Beetle ( not super ) that would be a good parts car, or restoration. I would guess the 1303 super beetle body could be swapped onto the '73 beetle chassis, to make a '74 1303 Beetle.. that's a lot of work tho, and added cost as that 1 is $700, and runs altho it's missing tin and is leaking oil
