Cool man! It's good being able to see it instead of just being told about it. Looks like you've got a lot of work ahead of ya though you
also have a fair bit of time. Do a good job and make it look sick!:thumb

Looks like a bloody good place to start. Far less rust in that than there was in my 73, or my 67, ..... or coincidentally, my 57
I always seem to pick rusty ones to start with
One little point - its not a 59. Ovals were made up till 57, and the first big rear window beetle was released in 57 - still had semaphores and oval
style door handles, but new dash, and window and bunch of other changes.
So - yours is at the latest a mid 57. You should find the chassis number and post it on the forum - one of these guys will be able to date your car
for you.
But at any rate - enjoy the resto
