Also, to get heat into the Beetle,  you had to open a window an inch. 
Lots of people complained about lack of heat, but open the window an 
bit, and keep the RPM's up, and things were just fine. Also if you came 
to a cross street where the snow plow left a windrow of snow in your 
path, turn around and back through it. The front was light weight and 
would slide on top the snaw. :)
