circa 63 and i guess 64 too vw australia used a "SR" body number prefix on Sun Roof models and "S" prefix on Standard models.

what it means is your car is an original 118 model (factory sunroof car) not a golde sunroof transplant.

from what i understand they don't have all the details for australian built cars in germany so getting a birth certificate won't help.

my suggestion would be to try and find some og paint somewhere. perhaps underneath the fuel tank or above the gearbox. someone once suggested under the ID plate which sounds like a good idea to me.

does it have it's og headliner? ribbed or perforated? ribbed it's most likely a 63 so pearl white, perforated a 64 so polar.

(to be honest i'm not sure if the headliner change was exactly with the year model/colour changes)

Almost certainly Polar White (VW 1.3.903). Look in the front boot, behind the spare tyre, on the panel between the washer bottle and brake fluid reservoir. That's where VWA used to put the Dulux colour sticker. If you're lucky it will still be there.

No, VW Germany does not have production details for Australian-manufactured cars. The records no longer exist.
