It's a 1975 VW SP2 made in Sao Paulo, Brazil. One of approximately 10,000 made between 1972-1976.
All steel body with 1.7 Liter Type 3, dual carbs, pancake engine, swing-axle tranny and Type 1 front axle beam.
I bought it in 1993 in Mill Valley, CA. It was very rusty and neglected. Spent about 3 years on a body off amateur restoration.
I always planned to drive it regularly so didn't try to make it perfect. It's a rare VW, but easy to maintain and a blast to drive.
