Superb, got a pic of the Super? Would be interesting to see the chop. Hmm, 2.5" chop and lowered all around would not be too bad.

Personally, I had a 1303 that was a joy to drive! I miss that car!

I like the front suspension a whole lot better than the torsion arm setup.

Looking for a nice candidate now.

??Mechanically??

I think he is refering to the front suspension being easier (simpler) to work on than the super front end.

He might be refering to the Super's front suspension mechanically handling better the the standard beetles.

I wouldn't even agree with that! How many grease nipples does a super need?

You have a point there but with the exception of the grease fittings the standard is a simpler design.

Uhmmmm.... you said nipples ...
