1967 Volkswagen Beetle
I decided when started my Lotto Garage, that all of its cars would be very driveable. No exotic supercars or one-off customs — just what Hemmings Classic Car magazine might call a "driveable dream." Which brings us to this week's selection: the '67 Beetle. Why the '67, when for so many years the Beetles were virtually unchanged? Well, there's yer clue right there — virtually unchanged. They actually did change from year-to-year, you just couldn't always tell from a block away. The 1967 models were quite unique on the outside though. It was the final year for the old-style bumpers, and the first year for the flat hubcaps and the upright rear license plate locater. And this was the only year all three styling cues would appear together. So there you go. I'll take one in black please, with the red leatherette upholstery and white sidewall tires. — jc
