Jim - Plus the tires are a lot grippier, stiffer side walls, lower profile and wider today. The anti-sway bars/camber compensators/limit straps come into play at the handling limit not on casual touring.
Many VS-built speedster didn't even have the OEM thin sway bar installed. VW did realize that something was required in the rear of the bug and a Z-bar antisway bar was used briefly on later bugs.
I had a '65 Triumph Spitfire with Pirelli tires that I thought handled great - until I took the local airport turns at breakneck speed and the IRS rear (no rear sway bar) hopped up. I fortunately spun out in an open grass area. Scared be-Jesus out of me.
