After looking at all the photos, I've come to realize that there just isn't a bad angle to photograph a Split from. No matter how you aim your camera at a Split, they look cool!

She's older now so the car would be preferable to date |
Date? As in put a time period to it?
Or date? Like take her out and show her a good time. A goooood time.

The play on words was intentional but I am interested in the vehicle year as I thought it might be really early because of the steering wheel

Bring a little bit of humor brightens it up a bit don't you think? Anyroad, the steering wheel bit makes it even harder to date because even my friends 1966 1200 A has that standard steering wheel. I suggest analyzing the dash to bring things into perspective. |

Speaking of brightening it up... 
I worked on it a tiny bit. Maybe this will help - I thought it might have had a stamped radio area but I still can't tell:

...And also, a square profile rear view mirror, so at least a 1950s car.  |
