Looks like a 1956-57 356A coupe - curved windshield and beehive tail lights are characteristic of the 1956 cars. Looks petty rough- especially the trunk floor.

Get the buffer! I agree with Jack W. Any engine? Also if it has 16" wheels, it is a 1955 or older.

Wonder what the floor and under carriage looks like. Wonder if it even has a floor?

That will be rusted away much higher than the floor.
