It would be late 1960. 36hp, manual [cable] choke, split-case gearbox, 50/50 tail lights, clear, narrow front blinkers, baked enamel [Alabaster?], push-button door handles, etc.

Just needs a few bits, a tidy-up, and the mower run 'round the inside. 👍

I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Alabaster? is that for real? so a 36 hp should be in it?

The paint is pretty faded...it could be Mango Green, as you say. If it is, late 1960 for sure. Mango Green came out around July, 1960. Yep, should be 36hp. 👍

I had a Mango Green, July, 1960. Good car. My Dad bought it new.
