Ah well then, if I were to choose an early Beetle with which to drive on a daily basis, I'd opt for a pristine example of a '67 standard as my top choice, though a '73 through '77 Superbeetle would also be up there for a daily driver. As a third choice, a '75-'77 standard beetle w/L-Jetronic would be pretty cool, as well. Try http://www.thesamba.com/vw/ to look and see what's out there.
