This brazilian made VW was produced before 63, considering the narrow blinker lights. Another identifying feature is the wiper rest place at left, but this was kept in production up to 66 first series.

I guess the official name in Brazil was VW Sedan followed by the mechanization... for example, VW Sedan 1300.
