I'd have to guess '74/'75 time period.
There were convoys of pre-release Rabbits traveling between Los Angeles and the Mojave Desert on HWY 395 outfitted with black boxes.
The Beetle was doomed in the USA.
I should have bought the issue.I was a Ghia guy,so I didn't have that much attachment to the Bugs.And wouldn't have thought at the time that we'd be interested in them 40-years later.
