Just bought an oval but confused it its a 55 or 56 it doesn't have the batwing steering wheel, it also has bumper over riders. It was advertised as a
late 55
the Body number is: MKA 14692
please help me out
cheers
Hi
beetles have chassis numbers located under the rear seat in the centre next to the oval plate..
and engine numbers on the engine...
1955- chassis numbers: 781885 to 1060929
1955 engine numbers: 945527 to 1277347
I don't know of any listings by body numbers...
cheers

The annoying thing is that its on a 60's pan, and the engine is from a superbug... i can't find body number's anywhere...
Hi
I can see Your problem...
chassis number is only for the chassis...
NOT the body....
so the body has an oval window...
1960s chassis...
late 1600 twin port engine...
I cannot really help...
I don't know of any way to tell what year the body is...
maybe a photo of the dashboard ... and someone knows something..???
cheers

i agree post some pics and some of the so called experts will answer.
btw do you know what an expert is.
x is an unknown quantity
a spert is a dip under pressure.
cheers for the info will do that soon
look for a date stamped on the back of the speedo
thats a good idea will do
there are a couple of numbers on the back but would 8.55 mean august of 1955....?
yep
