    The 1303 was the best Beetle VW ever made! I was lucky to own a '73 1303. Great drive - can see where the Golf got it's good road holding from...

    Senhora Volkswagen do Brasil: nós merecíamos esse carro pelo volume de vendas no Brasil. No entanto, 1974, foi o ano em que o Sedan 1300 abandonou as rodas de 5 parafusos.

    • @umbertospilotros3986

      Por quê?
      Disseram eles (os alemães da VWB), que o nosso mercado não é exigente...
      Por esse motivo, o sedan brasileiro teve o parabrisa e os vidros laterais do alemão 1958, e a vigia traseira do alemão 1965, até 1996...
      Nenhuma evolução da suspensão traseira foi feita, nem aqui no Brasil, nem no México...
      Na frente, então...

    What a beautiful, rare vehicle. It is so uncommon to see a 70's 1303 Super Beetle that has been so well cared for. I have a '74 1303 Sun Beetle. Do you know where I might find a rosewood radio block off plate, like the one in your dash?

    • @carscloseup

  • @mertronael
    @mertronael 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I know this is a really old video but I was hoping you could respond. I have the same car basically, but mine had pilot seats with headrests! Maybe it is because it is a 1600? Also my main question is, at 2:22 what is that thing on the dash? Is it for you to keep track of your trips? Was that an original accessory? Mine has a black plastic piece there, if that is the intended piece for that hole, I'd love to look for it and get one. Do you know what it is called or where can I find it? Thanks!

    • @carscloseup
      @carscloseup  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes it's for keeping track of trips. It was not an original option, but something popular back then, if you car wasn't equipped with a trip odometer. As for the seats i don't think the pilot seat or bucket seat was available in Europe, but I'm not an expert en Beetles. This one on the video was a 1600 cc, too.

    Looks more like a '73; the 74's had cylindrical, hydraulic bumper supports, unless this is a strictly european model (I notice there are no head rests). The speedometer/odometer is also in metric.

    Congratulations with your nice 1303'Big' beetle! It has the interiour of a original 'Big' for sure but where are those beautiful wide 5 1/2" wheels that were originally mounted on a 1303 'Big'?? The ones mounted on your car are the 4 1/2" version!...I also miss the black stipes and '1303BIG' logo on both sides of the car but that's not so important ;-)

    • @carscloseup
      @carscloseup  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, this car has been sold for almost a year now! Not all Big models were equipped with 5 1/2" rims, some came with 4 1/2", at least here in Denmark. You're right about the "1303 Big" sticker is missing, due to repainting they were removed and new never reinstalled. Actually replacement stickers are available!
