AnimatronixX ![]() | I don't think this is an actual convertible. I believe that's a "faux cabriolet" with a closed metal roof covered in canvas, just to give the impression of a convertible - but it can't be opened without a can opener. Various Cadillac dealers offered these fancy-looking conversions and the more expensive ones even featured a wavy metal roof. We had a couple of these for sale back in the day and it's the pinnacle of humbug - which is probably why I like these. ![]() |

supcoach ![]() | Since I said Monza in the first place...... | 2015-03-19 23:35 | ||
dsl ![]() | Why not just go for Monza as the most probable, and therefore a plausible [H (RWD)] default?? Noted that there's nothing visible on front wing, which seems to exclude the Olds based on all the presented brochure pics. Also does not look like any side trim or coachlines, so Olds and Buick don't look very likely. This can only get definitively solved with better pics - which may be impossible. But can anyone find anything against the Chevy?? |

eLMeR ![]() | Why not keeping the GM generic name until a better identification can be made? Buick, Chevrolet and Oldsmobile are GM makes... | 2015-03-18 22:18 | ||
eLMeR ![]() | H-body seems too much generic, with two-door station-wagon and notchback models... | 2015-03-18 21:31 | ||

2015-03-14 00:51 | ||
eLMeR ![]() | My first thought was to narrow at least to Chevrolet or Buick, due to the lack of trim. But the Oldsmobile Starfire basic model was "naked" too... Unless someone see an irrefutable clue for a specific model, isn't there a common GM name, for this car? -- Last edit: 2015-03-14 00:31:00 |

eLMeR ![]() | @ Donovan Savage: you apparently like short answers. "Yes", "no", "close"... Maybe you should develop a bit with some external sources. At least when you disagree with a former identification or idea... -- Last edit: 2015-03-13 23:58:58 |

night cub ![]() | Here are all 3. All are the same. Some of the later Olds and Monzas used different taillights, but the Buick used this one: Buick: Link to "oldcarbrochures.org" Chevy: Link to "oldcarbrochures.org" Olds: Link to "oldcarbrochures.org" -- Last edit: 2015-03-13 22:26:10 |

montrosepatriot ![]() | 1978 (the 'R' on the TX license plate (first letter seen) denotes the year the plate was minted in the State of Texas; at the time of filming these license plates were being phased out where a May 1988 state law made TX license plates over 8 years old 2 be replaced (1989 was the final year where pre-1978 issued plates were retired); plates minted after 1975 are usually considered non-collectible but they have shown up in gamerooms or collected as artwork canvasses | 2014-06-14 10:10 | ||

ingo ![]() | The car above on the pic? No way. It is a German built US-version from 1974-1976, most likely a "Super Beetle" (1303 outside USA). Definitely that and nothing else. |

ingo ![]() | All Convertibles from 1973 to the end in 1980 are based on the 1303/Super Beetle and all Convertibles were always made by Karmann in Osnabrück, never ever by Volkswagen itself. |

night cub ![]() | You're just proving the point that the cars were built in Germany, not Brazil. Just the bodies. So I'm not sure why you are carrying on and on and on and on... -- Last edit: 2013-12-28 19:07:05 |

rjluna2 ![]() | The last German made Volkswagen Sedan 'Beetle' exported to USA was made for 1977 model year before they dropped completely. However, the Convertible continues to be made until 1979 model year. I don't know what M.K. is coming up with those Brazilian information. Whoever this member should look at those Brazilian made cars posted elsewhere ![]() |

night cub ![]() | 1979 was the last model year for the Convertible (though they still could be found in 1980, as 1979 models). All Typ 1 Beetles sold in the US were German made. What the Wikipedia article states is that the Mexican-made Beetle was on the gray-market import list, meaning the VW never imported them. Either the individual owner or a third party was bringing them into the US under some loophole in the late 1980s trade laws (the same way Citroen CXs were imported and sold here). Car & Driver did an article back in the day about these Beetles. From what I understand, they have since closed the loophole with the laws requiring the cars to meet emission and safety standards for the model year up to 25 years. |
2013-12-28 00:27 | ||
ingo ![]() | Was the 1975 Super Beetle the last Typ1, officially sold in the USA? Was there an US-version of the 1200 (until Jan 1978 made in Germany, later on in Mexico)? |

tore-40 ![]() | Trying not to step on anyone's toes, I would just like to point out that the dual exhaust system seems to rule out the catalytic converter and Digifant injection system of the newer Mexican ones. ![]() |
2013-12-27 22:34 | ||
ingo ![]() | No. Wikipedia is not exact enough. With specific details sometimes even the hardcore-VW-freaks, as dealers for parts for classic VWs, sometimes are stumped. But such knowledge is important, for example, when you check boxes with NOS-spare parts or wrecks on junkyards. |

ingo ![]() | It had. It was the 50hp-engine of the top-line 1303. But named "1303 S" then, not "1600". |
