Passenger side front door look like a push-button, '64 onwards. Drivers side looks correct, but I'm on my cell and too lazy to zoom.

In fact only 1 part he has bought will look date correct. The rear cargo door.
The pass door, forward cargo door, rear hatch, engine lid, and roof clip hanging above it all will have give away's that they are incorrect.
The drivers door might or might not be correct. This being built in 55 it should have wolfsburg doors. They dont fit smoothly at the rear beltline.
They stick out at the top of the beltline a good 1/4th of an inch.
