That is a 1955-1957 three synchro. <54 would not have a nine digit part number, >58 had different brake cables and drums. A non-synchro would not have hydraulic lines.

Actually, this transaxle started life as a Feb '59 non-synchro crashbox from a standard Beetle. The brake lines suggest either the original car was upgraded to hydraulic brakes, the transaxle has 3-synchro guts, or the transaxle was swapped into a deluxe Beetle.
