I'm pretty sure the chassis is VW Type 3 (Kharmann Ghia et al) rather than VW Type 1?
 
...Hmm, that thread title needs a bit of re-jig. Interesting car nonetheless.

@TenEightyOne Oh hang on, what you doing here, dude? Are you lost? :lol:

Still need a year for this...
 
OP should have more info... but I think it's a 1973.
 
Looks a little dated for 1989.
