hi just wondering if someone can tell me what year this beetle is it has semaphores aswell and snowflake tail light

a rear shot would help - especially showing tail lights and nose

my guess is 63 - 64??

Its a mish mash of parts but big window semaphore bug so between late 57 and early 60.

Decklid's right but its got late doors, bonnet and probably front guards.

1960....probably had a whack in the front, hence the later front guards and bonnet.
