<x-flowed>The car was built in March '65, but I don't know the pickup date. The 
original dealer folder came with the car which included a brochure 
about the tourist delivery program and a list of the cars available in 
the US, which included the  "Squareback Sedan". Also, I've seen a '65 
VWoA tourist delivery Squareback sales brochure for sale (should have 
bought it but didn't). It was printed in the US and featured a '65 
model Square in the photos, and gave all the details of the program.
