know when they started importing them.
Official import to the US began with the 1966 model year, but beginning
with the 1965 model year you could special order a US-spec 1500S
Squareback through the tourist delivery program. There was a VWoA
brochure for the '65 Squareback (printed in the US) that described the
tourist program. They were essentially the same as the Canadian-spec
models. I used to own one of these '65s, and the parking lights went
out when the headlights came on.
As far as I can tell Type 3s were imported to Canada right from the
beginning in 1962.
