I need some help from anyone who is familiar with older VW beetles. This could help me in a criminal case. I am looking for documentation that would give me the wheel base and track measurements and if any VW beetles has positive traction. I have tire tracks in my yard that are associated with a violent attack on a family member. I have reason to believe it was my neighbor who drives an older model VW beetle convertable. Please email me if you can help. THANKS in advance!

Hey, I saw that movie. "My Cousin Vinny" or something like that? Give us a link to a newspaper article about what you describe because there's no way it wouldn't have made it into a local paper. I'd love to read about it. I mean, unless you are just trolling.

Nevermind!

If a smartass answer is all I am going to get, then I can find out on my own.

Must be a thing with VW owners.

The exact wheel base depends upon the year of the convertible, but the later years had 95. 1/3" X 54 1/3". Earlier is about an inch shorter and a bit more than two inches narrower.

It means that the OP's skidmarks are lined up. Maybe he turns his underwear inside out every other day.
