The third digit of the chassis number will be the year of manufacture. For instance, if the chassis number begins 390xxxxxx, then it's a 1970 model year
My 71' squareback tires are 165/80R15 Hope that helps a little
Based on my recollections of VW bugs around then, probably around 25mpg if you aren't driving flat out a lot.
California Pacific JBugs sells parts for VW type 3 cars such as the VW Squareback, Fastback, and Notchback. They sell many different parts such as complete interiors, window and body seals, door panels, seat upholstery, and carpet kits.
All aircooled VWs have the same firing order: 1-4-3-2
'67 model year squareback has no external gas flap, the filler is under the hood on the top of the tank. The filler door on the passenger fender didn't come out until '68 for types 1 and 3.

There are two places that it can be located. There is a silver placard underneath the front hood of the car that will have the body style number, paint code, etc, or you can find it under the seat, in the middle section in the back, it will most likely be dirty, but it should be in one of those places.
The third number of the serial number is the year it was made.
The Volkswagen Squareback was produced from the years 1961 to 1973. The maximum speed of a 1973 Volkswagen Squareback 4 cyl 52 HP is around eighty miles per hour.
vw transmission 002301103 what year did it fit?
If it's aircooled, don't worry about the year--maintenance on them is pretty much all the same.
