Check it out. About 3 years ago, when I graduated from high school I bought a 1970 bug for 400 bucks. It had an engine and seats and it could get me around. After a couple months, I wanted to make it look like an earlier 1965 bug. These bugs had smaller tail lights, the 5 lug drums, the low back seats etc. The first thing I had to do was take off both front and back bumpers, lights, fenders, hood and decklid. I also took out the side windows because I had a set of pop-out windows I had bought at a car show for 30bucks. I bought the 4 earlier fenders, the hood and decklid at the cheapest place to find VW parts. www.kustom1warehouse.com/. It's located in Orange, CA.
