<DIV>It's also possible that a PO (Previous Owner) removed the pop outs, and
installed stationary glass and seals. My old 69 Square was like that when I
purchased it.</DIV>

<DIV>A quick way to tell IF it's a 70, is to look at the wiper arms, or the
C/D post (depending on the body style) at the rear of the car. A 70 will have
the wipers parked on the left and no C/D post vents, while a 71 will park the
wiper arms on the right and have vents in the C/D posts.</DIV>

<DIV>If it really is a 70, then all of the important parts for re-installing
the pop outs will be there. But, IF it's actually a 71, then it'll be missing
those parts (VW deleted them when they added the vents to the rear posts).
That said, there are ways around it to install pop outs, but some require
cutting and welding, or thinking outside the box.
