1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle
| When I was a young
man and buying my first car I decided on a Volkswagen.
This was in 1964 and the Volkswagen was a 1963 Custom Sedan. That was followed 10 months later with a new 1964 DeLuxe sedan. There was a brief period when I tried a couple of North American cars but came back to Volkswagen and had a total of seven more ending with a 1970, 1500 Squareback. There was one more, a used 1960 Custom Sedan which was used as a second family car. That was my last volkswagen until I bought my 1972 Super Beetle. |

I decided to include my instructions to this page. My Super Beetle is a standard shift so I cant say if these instructions would apply to an auto shift or not. I have been towing my VW like this for two summers and have had no problems at all except when I tried to back up. That didn't work well at all. |
|||
| Towing a beetle is very easy but you shouldn't
use the bumper.
There are special tow bars available at CiP1 http://www.cip1.ca/SearchResults.asp?Search=tow+bar&Search1=Search Has a good one and is what I use. The one you
choose depends on if you have a Supper or Standard beetle.
|
|||
| Disclaimer: Please check with you local authorities
before towing with tow bar.
I have been told that some jurisdictions do not allow them. Oldcarandtruckpictures.com excepts no responsobility for the use of a tow bar. |
