It seems unusual to me that VW took this long to discover the
problem. I discovered it the very first time I took my '68 on a long
trip. That was in the summer of '68, and it happened the very first
time I drove for a couple hours in the rain.
These days they are fair weather cars, but when they were new, they
were considered utilitarian.
