Additionally, about the VW's, that '58 Type 2 windowless that I had was a non-syncro 1st while the '61 we bought for my wife ($200 and nice) was syncronized...neither had gas gauges...a lever on what front engines cars is called the firewall was turned when you ran out.

I figured you knew but I wasn't sure.

You gave the correct answer for the post I made of the VW bug. It is a '61. The '61 had synchromesh first gear and it was quite an improvement.
Heres me with my '61 back in about '67. I didn't like the green and it needed a lot of body work when I bought it, so my dad's graduation present was to get the dents remove and a new paint job. I drove the wheels off of that thing.
