I'm going to build my parent's second Beetle.  I'm 95% confident that's a 1960 model, when they still lived at Zion N. P. (dad was a Park Ranger stationed at the East Gate).  That was taken in Glen Canyon before it got flooded by the dam, Gunsight Butte is a landmark standing above the lake.  Someone here helped me with their first Bug plate.  :)

A few years back Mike at Best Model Car Parts made me some license plates with my letter/number combinations.  You might try him--his stuff is high quality and he's a great guy to deal with.

I will confirm that!  I had just emailed him about getting wheels and engine lid, he is going to do it for me.  I got his '57 Beetle conversion kit last year, but didn't wish to rob the parts, since I will be doing my parents first Beetle (in picture).

Please let us see the finished model when you're done.  This looks like a nifty project, and I'm eager to see it!  Great pics, too!
