usually, the 3rd number of the vin correspond to the year of the vw. In this case, it would be 1977.
easiest place to find is under rear seat on tunnel to check vin + http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/chassisdating.php
“looking to see if the 72 VW I own is a Beetle or Super Beetle? VIN # 1122369336”
Model year 1970.
I have some charts showing the meaning of the number and letter sequence in old VW vin numbers. All depends on how old the owner is as to whether i can help with decoding for you. If you want to let me have the vin I'll see if i can help.Dave.
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 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.
