welcome luvbug.

it's hard to tell from that dark pic, but the headlights and blade bumpers look early 60's. do you have any more pics?

also, find the vin. it's under the hood, behind the spare tire, close to the brake fluid reservoir, on a tag that is riveted to the body. it should be a 7 or 9 digit #. there is also a vin located inside the car, under the back seat, on the top of the tunnel (the large hump in the middle of the car that goes all the way from the front to the back). this # will be stamped into the tunnel right by a plate that is held to the tunnel by 2 screws (under that plate is your shift rod coupler).

once you find it, go to the link below and look for the corresponding month & year. remember that with this list, the last # posted is the last beetle built that month.

good luck & post back if you need help.

where are you located?
