Will a VW Beetle rear drum brake plate fit on 67 Beetle?

No, a VW Beetle rear drum brake plate from a later model will not fit on a 1967 Beetle. The brake plate mountings changed in 1968, so the later brake plates will not line up with the mounting holes on the 1967 backing plate. Additionally, the brake shoes and wheel cylinders are different sizes on the later models, so they will not be compatible with the 1967 brake components.
