Try contacting the Chairman of The Historic Volkswagen Club, or place an ad on their forum. Plenty of knowledge in the club, especially on the very early cars.
Alternatively contact “busben” on here. He is selling an early 49 with the small tank.

Tank is approx 500x305, the opening some 5 mm larger.
Note the round corners back.

Nice job Mika as always.

Interesting...I had to do a double take on this.
My first thought: Something's fishy: paint is awfully shiny for the era of this car; and why no ID plate? 
Then on second glance; I note its background - in a spray booth.  ...And those short neck tanks don't grow on trees. 
Clarly a build in the works. And perhaps origin of your inquiry?
Rare one and hope you get the desired information and results.
Please elaborate and/or post more pics.
You have my attention and interest,
Best of luck w/ it! 
Grant
