I'd say that the light blue was not so popular in the earlier years, but by 69 it really hit its stride. By the end of the run in 73 it was probably THE stereotypical type 3 color. I think Al mentioned beige as being popular in Texas, which makes sense. This is another color that seemed to get more popular in the later years. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
