Default motion beetle 1968

looking for info on how many vw bugs were modified and prepped by motion performance. mine came with receipts for mods by motion, but not sure if it's a "one off" or there were many bugs modified by Joel Rosen.

modifications are a performance motor, racing transmission, performance suspension, koni shocks. exhaust, euro mirrors, wheels and tires, vdo gauges, fiberglass flared fenders (which were damaged and changed over the years). that's what i have receipts for.
