      Actually, none of these really classic '50's cars are being saved because nobody is crushing them anymore. I think oldest cars that get crushed daily tend to be 25-40 years old. These are the cars that get saved when fixed. 50's cars are pretty safe anyway.

    The first page of the paperwork in German is a guarantee for an exchange motor (6 mo. or 10000 km). The second page is the certification from the garage that the motor #1495362 was replaced by the motor #1464723 which one has to show to the equivalent of the DMV. I would assume then that since the number of the replacement motor is less than that of the original motor, the replacement motor was a rebuilt one.

Salty roads do amazing things to cars. Lots of cutting, grinding and a few rolls of mig wire.

    'Austausch Motor' means Switch/Exchange Motor... and though being not overly familiar with vehicle paperwork, based on what I could just read...the motor was replaced (1963) with another motor and they give you the new number which they recommend you get added to your DMV record for the car. This was done in Southern Bavaria (Garmisch-Partenkirchen) - the former owner was US Military? Garmisch has a vacation facility site there for US military personnel and families and likely some sort of military depot/small base/facility in the region.

I'd get it sand blasted back to metal, repair panels and paint it that original mid red that I had on a couple of mid 60's Beetles 30+ years back. Can't rem the colour's name.

    I see 2 options. One is combine it with a desert car, which usually has good floors but bad seats and engine. The other is to weld the floors etc. functional but ugly, as long as the seats go back in the right place and everything is strong enough, that is good enough. Just weld in the sides of a bunch of old appliances cut and shaped to fit for 20 minutes or so. Interior welding need not be pretty, just strong a weather resistant.
    Maybe you should get in touch with a cross country car hauler who can either ship your cars to the desert, ship desert cars to you, or both, since all your cars seem to need the same parts, in order to get those parts, like floors, you need cars from a different climate. You could travel if your car hauler is fuel efficient, but efficient long distance hauls are usually at least 2 or 3 cars at once.

    A fuel powered steam cleaner will be a best tool for any restoration, or patina type cleaning.. Steam,and heat,along with water pressure will do what lots of elbow grease,a ton of effort,and a pressure washer wont. .
