Even though I don't own an ST (missed by 1month--mine is a 3/76 build), I've offered to help Dan gather VINs/pics of any ST's that currently aren't on his swallowtail.info. I want to make a resource listing of all the ST's in the world.

If you don't see your (or someone you know) ST VIN/pic on this page, please either post her or email me a VIN #, your first name, color name/code(ie L10A) and pic(s) to mk216v at yahoo dot com.

i know about a few people from the German Golf 1 community of interest (http://www.golf1-ig.de/galleries/members/index.php) (here infopage) (http://www.golf1-ig.de/index.php?lang=en)who also own swallowtails, but i don't know that those owners want sent pics + info from their cars to you, maybe you can ask them also by yourself in their forum/board (http://www.golf1-ig.de/board/list.php?1), you can ask them in english, that's possible, or, of course, in your best german language :D "swallowtail" is in german "Schwalbenschwanz" btw. :D

Hello,

like i said earlier, you can also write there in english, many german members there from the Golf 1 IG (community of interest) can read your english, and can also answer in english to your question.

It's always better to ask by yourself there, so give it a try.

As it fails I can still help.

René

Clas his one (http://www.golf1-ig.de/service/register/detail.php?id=1092&offset=23)

VIN: 1763009984 builded in oktober 1975, but because the VIN with a 6 as third number it's also a car from the modelyear 1976 (that modelyear started in august 1975). Clas bought his car from the first owner, it's first registration was in september 1976 (!) because the vehicle was before running at VW as a work car. Documents available. Clas his car was full restored by him, he has an thread with pics. about the restorationworks on the Golf 1 IG site:

restaurationworks on Clas his swallowtail Golf (http://www.golf1-ig.de/board/read.php?1,40990)

He asked me (http://www.golf1-ig.de/board/read.php?1,41066) friendly to redirect his thread about the restaurationworks to here, soon that thread will be updated by him with pics. and more info!

VIN: 1753208497
First registration: 31/01/75

He wrote (translation in my best english): he owns the car now for over more than 4 years, the car was scrapped for parts by the former owner, but will be restored in the future. Pictures follow a.s.a.p.

Hi,

Here's mine:

http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z70/menno34/Foto678.jpg

Here's the info about the car:

VIN: 1753434193
Car is built: july 1975
1st registration: 14 october 1975
Model: Golf L
Color: Marino Yellow L20A
Engine: 1.1 litre 50 HP engine code FA
Interior: Green leatherette/cloth
Original extra: Rear fog light

It's an original Dutch car (no import)

I ordered a birth certificate from the Volkswagen Museum, then I have some more info about the car and the extra's.

Car has most details a swallowtail should have, but I do need some things. (Passenger seat, heater control panel, switches behind steering wheel, better door cards) It needs restauration because the welding that has been done in the past is not how it should be. It now has a 1.3 litre engine.(60 HP)
It only has 5 of the 15 fuses and even then I drove it home!
I'm thinking about putting a 1.3 litre engine in it with 75 HP and a 5 speed gearbox, but that's in the far future.

Menno Hofman

Ps. I also sent this message and pictures to Dan from Swallowtail.info but probably his inbox was full.
