As rpcm wrote, the Beetle on the main pic is not an original car. The engine-lid is from a 1965-67-version, the lamps and the bumper from a later one. The position of that parts isn't original (both much too low), so I say, it's a 1966/67-model (by the colour, too), which got later on other lamps and bumpers.
