“looking to see if the 72 VW I own is a Beetle or Super Beetle? VIN # 1122369336”
navagate me thru a 72 super beetle interior
ALL Super Beetles have a McPherson Strut front suspension (the shock is inside the coil) and the spare tire lies flat. The main out side dimensions are the Supers are slightly longer from the windshield forward for the newer USA DOT regulations at the time.
yes
72 from 736 seats
There are three screws. The two diagonal ones adjust the beam. If you unscrew the the bigger one at the bottom the headlight just pulls out from the bottom.
Under the back seat

The Super Beetle has McPherson struts in the front and and the Standard Beetle has a torsion-bar front suspension - the latter is recognizable by the two transverse tubes comprising the front "beam" assembly. The Super has a larger trunk with the spare tire laying flat in the bottom while the Standard's spare stands nearly upright at the front. Most Supers also have slots in the front body apron, but that's not a reliable indicator because non-louvered Supers do exist. The Super's wheelbase is 0.8" longer, and its front fenders and trunk lid are not interchangeable with the Standard's. Otherwise the two cars are essentially identical from the windshield back, although in most years (`72 included) the Super has a few more "luxury" features such as a fresh air ventilation fan. Engines and transmissions are identical, year for year, but the Super is a couple hundred pounds heavier so it doesn't accelerate quite as well.
A Beetle has a shock front suspension whereas a Super Beetle has McPherson struts. A Beetle has a flat windshield, Super has curved windshield from 73 on, but has a flat windshield in 71 and 72. Front hood on Beetle is narrow and comes to more of a point. Super looks wider and is more rounded. Supers are also known as Fat Chicks. ALL Supers have the McPherson strut so just look under the front hood in tire well and see if it has the "shock" inside the coil spring. The standard Beetles all have the same style from the A pillar back as the supers. 73 and later also has a big curved dash. Lastly, in 1977 the only Super was a convertible, 75 was the last year for a Super Beetle Sedan in the USA. All '77 convertibles are Supers. VW Beetle, Super Beetle history/FAQ, here is a link: http://www.superbeetles.com/faq.htm http://www.vwshowtime.com/8_history/history_e2.html The short answer is the only 77 Super Beetle was a convertible, no Super Sedans in 77, so if you have a US 77 Beetle Sedan it is not a Super Beetle. 71-72 Supers are AKA 1302, 73 and later known as 1303. no actually the 1973 model (which i drive) is actually a beetle not a super because 73 was the year that VW changed to making only supers so you've got half beetles and the others supers but the only thing different is the front clip anywhere from dash board back is actually the same as a regular beetle but the other answer that i just improved is also correct they did go to the McPherson's strut for the front end so any where from 1974 on up are supers unless modified.
