Yes, 64-65 is the Type smoothie style.  Solid black rim.

salmon color? http://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/index.mv?photo+84950.jpg

Yes, a '64 could have had red door panels.  They look real to me.

>The car appears to be swapped over to 12 volts..but the push button is

Usually the rheostats burn up but if they kept the wipers on the full slow

I don't know the exact date but I believe push-button dash = red needle
gauges.
