Title: help on identifying a beetle
Post by: JIMP on October 24, 2013, 16:09:56 pm
Hello experts!

we have located a beetle in a town far from us which is currently cabrio, question is can we identify from the chassis if the car was original cabrio or it was modified? the chassis is 4558638, I don't want to go until there to see it without knowing some history, let me hear please your inputs, cheers and thanks for looking

Hi dimitrios, without a birth certificate from VW I don't think you'll be able to tell, early cabs don't have the cabrio only numbers that start 15xxxxxx  ;D

Hello Ben
