Vin no ?
I have the following vin no on a 01 01 1967 registered Beetle - 115299542. What does all the digits mean? The engine which has a broken block is SFCR067654. The "R" I see means rebuilt. Where do I get a good engine? I suppose engine exchange would be the better way to go.

Thanks. That is strange. It shows first year of reg as 01 01 1967 on the scrapping paper.

Re: Vin no ?
The registration papers are NOT a definitive source of ANY information about the car. They are often riddled with errors, especially year of first registration.
The VIN number is the definitive source.
