68? 69?
Here are your clues:
crescent moon intakes behind rear quarter windows=1971 or newer;
ginormous round taillights=1973 or newer;
four sets of louvres on hood=1972 or newer.
My guess is it's a 1974 Super Beetle.
Alright,

Yeah - I should have looked at the picture better. I swear when I was behind it, it had the slightly smaller taillights that were before the ugly-yet-lovable massive taillights of the 70s.

Good catch.

I used to be a purist (which is weird because the only Beetle I ever had was a '71), but now I'm with you--the massive taillights (and even Super Beetles generally) while ugly, are indeed lovable.
Alright,
