The indicaters will be the least of your worries if its got to go through the RTA as they won't approve of the narrowed beam or if its to low

This one has been for sale for a while, missing W deck and tail lights (~$300-500 worth) and it isn't moving at $3k.
56 Bug on Carsales
However an 'all original' car with '2" narrowed adj. beam' would have to be worth a bit....

I would have said $7-8k-ish....wouldn't say a bargain at $7500, thats about right I reckon, but considering the mods and that they do go for decent
money as a stocker, it would be a good buy.....sounds like my '55, sort of anyway....and I'd want at least that and then some and its regoed, and
older/rarer and very complete and in decent nick for a 54/55 model with the same mods and some nice accessories! So seems about right.

depends how original it is, how complete it is, and how much of a 56 beetle is left in there. I think something that is and original unrestored and
unmolestered car is worth more in my opinion as its a fresh starting point for a mod/build or great for a rat look which is very 'in' these days!

Molestered that's a bit harsh isn't it? Modified would be the correct interpretation. I'm not bias I love all vee dubs molestered or not.
lol.
And isn't it a 57 in question?
