Help identifying early guards?
Old Dubber - November 13th, 2010 at 03:12 PM

I think these guards are for my '56.
ie
Front – Headlamp electrical pipe/housing support has oval retaining washer

Rear - Two tail light bracket holes above electrical wire hole
and - raised imprints along mounting flange.

Any more clues?

I have a 56 , 57 , 58 beetle and they all look the same to me no blinker on front or rear guards.

They are correct - steel wiring tube on the front, swages between mounting holes on the rear.:tu: Beautiful:!:
