Good morning guys, Is the ID plate / body stamp located in a different location than the normal area by the brake fluid reservoir? The question is for a late 59 built 1960 EUROPEAN model Karmann beetle convertible. Thanks for any info! Dirk

1960 is on the lower left, looks like someone used pop rivets to install it through. Should be solid steel rivets. I believe they they changed to the one similar on the lower right sometime around April / May of 1960?
