The VIN is located on the dash, next to the windshield, driver's
side. Now as you failed to mention what year it is, it may not have
the VIN there if it is very old. If not it is located any number of
places. Firewall under the hood, Glove Box, you get the idea, look!
Now there is one other very easy way to find out. Look at the
title.
chassis number's under the rear seat in the middle, VIN plate is
under the bonnet next to the latch.

Asked in VW Beetle Type 1, VW Super Beetle
Can you findout if your 1974 beetle is super beetle from the vin number?
Yes. Look at the first three digits:
114: Standard Beetle
134: Super Beetle
There are five other ways to tell.
a. Windshield.
Flat windshield: Standard Beetle
Curved windshield: Super Beetle
b. Dashboard.
Dashboard made of steel, flat and straight up-and-down below the
windshield: Standard Beetle
Padded dashboard that looks a little like one from a modern car:
Super Beetle
c. Front shocks.
Just the shock: Standard Beetle
Shock inside huge coil spring: Super Beetle
d. Front apron - the piece of sheet metal below the front lip of
the trunk lid
No vent slots: Standard Beetle
Vent slots: Super Beetle
(Having said that, when Supers were still being made, some of
the aftermarket body-parts companies made slot-free Super Beetle
aprons. Since the slots don't do anything anyway, why not?)
e. Spare tire
Spare tire standing up in the trunk: Standard Beetle
Spare tire lying flat in a tire well: Super Beetle

Asked in VW Beetle Type 1, Volkswagen
How do you decode VW VIN?
You'll have to look in John Muir's "How to Keep Your Volkswagen
Alive" for pre-1970 cars, but 1970s and above have a serial number
that looks like this: 134 2215475 The first digit is the
"type"--type 1 is the Beetle, Super Beetle, Beetle Convertible,
Karmann Ghia and Thing, type 2 the Transporter, type 3 Squarebacks
and Fastbacks, and type 4 is...well, the type 4. If you have one,
you know it. The second digit is the specific car you have. In type
1, 1 was the Deluxe Beetle, 3 is the Super, and you'll have to fill
me in on KGs, convertibles and Things. The third digit is the last
digit in the model year. The last number is a one-up serial. If you
are looking for a super simple solution just to get information and
not figure it out go to www.decodethis.com (this website decodes
vin numbers for free, except for the VINs on aircooled
Volkswagens--I just tried it with the VIN on my own car, and it
rejected it.).
