The VIN for my 1968 VW Beetle is located under the hood, behind the spare tire, on an attached metal plate. and under the rear seat dead center the hump.
I need to find the year of my vw van that i just rescued so i can try to find restorative parts.... help, and thanks . PS. its a German made vw.
where is the location of the vin tag for a 1973 VW thing
usually, the 3rd number of the vin correspond to the year of the vw. In this case, it would be 1977.
“looking to see if the 72 VW I own is a Beetle or Super Beetle? VIN # 1122369336”
VIN # is found under the rear seat on the wishbone part of the cassis.

Your VW dealer can get the code from VW they will require the vin # and the radio ser.# there is usually a charge for this service.(about 25 - 30 $) Regards: TG Reaper

the vin number is usually found on the inside lip of the driver side door , where the door latch is.
The average mpg of a vw camper van is 18 - 20 mpg Older campers had smaller engines, where slower, but got better gas mileage. A Vanagon camper van (1984-1991) got around 18-20mpg. The 1980-1983 Vanagons did worse, but the 1968-1979 baywindow buses did better. the early baywindows (1968-1971) and splitties (1967 and earlier) could get 24 mpg on the highway.
