The Superbug is unique to the front of the car therefore our site is focused on that area. There are too many other sites that have information for the rest of the car, since all Bugs are the same from the doors to the back. Here is a list of resources and also on the links page, anything that you can't find within this site you'll find it elsewhere from the links page.
When reading threads in the archive be sure to read the entire post for all information. Please report any broken links. General Suspension Engine Body Interior Electrical Transmission Suspension split: 71-73/1 Superbug to 133 3003 655 early front suspension 73/2-79 Superbug from 133 3003 656 late front suspension Idler Arm Bushing split: 71-72/1 Superbug models up to chassis #112 2575 326 72/2-74 Superbug models from chassis #112 2575 327 Steering Wheel Spline: 71-?/74 ?/74-79 NOTE: 73/1 does not mean January 1973, the "1" represents the first half of the design split and the "2" is the latter half of the design split -------------------- "Superman" or plain ole "Supe".

No part numbers and I actually have the whole set but only posted the Super Beetle parts.
 However, I do have some diagram lists with part numbers, I just need to find the time to scan them*. * that means remind me and remind me and remind me until I do it -------------------- "Superman" or plain ole "Supe".

Well, they've bounced back between the bed and dresser and I was gonna scan them tonight but ended up working on a friend's computer for 3 hours (new computer set-up, with dual-view, TV, surround sound, two hard drives, etc.). I got home, seen the folder, and said "I'm too tired".

Okay, some progress, but not really; as you can see in the picture the back side of the page is bleeding through in the scan. This means that I'll have to make photo copies of them and lower the tone, then I'll have to scan the copies. So, it'll take more time.

If your scanner has a lid, try scanning them without closing it.

I needed to scan an old B&W film negative once with a regular paper type scanner and the image just came out black. So I lifted the lid and place a blank sheet of paper over the negative and back lit it with a flashlight. The scan came out surprisingly good. So you can get the scanners to work better sometimes if you don't follow the instructions.

Okay, would you be willing to put 100 minutes of effort into it?
