Super Beetle
what is the chasis difference between a classic vw beetle and super beetle?
How can you tell a difference from looking at the outside only if the car is a classic vw super beetle or just a regular beetle?
Why do some super beetles have a flat dash and some have a larger more sophisticated dash?
The easiest way to tell the difference was the presence of front strut suspension (they have coil front springs) and a grill across the front under the bumper. The hoods were also a completely different shape.
If you look on the tag on the dash the VIN number will tell you. All standard beetle VIN #s in this year range start with 113. All supers start with 133.
The answer above is close. From 1971 (the first year the super beetle was offered) until mid 1973 the super beetle and standard beetle used identical windshields. I have sold hundreds of them. After mid 1973 there was a huge change in the super beetle windshield to the very curved style he or she described.
Many people think the super replaced the standard but they were sold alongside each other for years.
