I don't know if anything on the body can help to identify a 1964-65 356 C, so I'll stop at 1962-65 356 B/C _____ Edit: Quote Visually, there was very little difference between the C series and the B series. One striking change was the modified rims with flatter hub caps without Porsche Crest. The new hub cap design was the result of the fact that all 356 models were now equipped with disc brakes as standard. The B type also featured a round exterior mirror. (Found on Porsche.com. I think the "B type" in the last line is a typo) So there is indeed nothing in the picture of this page to help saying more than 1962. -- Last edit: 2015-07-14 04:34:06
