@Mark For reference, my 1971 Super Beetle convertible. Flat windshield, smaller taillights.

First in a series of convertibles in my life. My very first new car was a 1971 Super Beetle convertible. It was the first year of the Super Beetle, and the only model year when it had a flat windshield.

It was $2500. I remember parking it to walk to my very first day of classes at the University of Oklahoma. KOFM, 104.1 in Oklahoma City, was playing Rod Stewart's "Maggie May" as I got out of the car.

I noticed a lack of classic car content here, so here it goes...

This is a 1974 Super Beetle I've been "restoring" the past few years. I got it to learn more about cars & have some fun. Biggest lesson so far is that I'm not good with mechanics. You can only adjust your valves incorrectly so many times 😂 . We recently added the Herbie stripes, by request of our kids after seeing the movie.
