This is a 1963 European version of the Volkswagen Squareback.
These models were not imported commercially to the US until 1965.
Someone most likely brought this back from Europe themselves and then I purchased it.
I totally restored it and painted it myself to the original SeaBlau L-360 color. If you looked at it one way it looked green. If you looked at it another way it looked like a deep sea blue.
Note the European side marker lights.
When you parked the car European style, you would turn your turn signal to the left or right, whichever side of the car was facing the road, and the side marker light would stay on all night. Safety First...

Definitely a rare Classic VW Squareback.
