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.
