Bummer. On going through the other posts, I see someone mentioned the "shortened" hood handle. Ok. Well, no one else mentioned the apparently Lucas type side mirror, the "modern" antenna, and that the dash top appears to be red and the rest of the interior appears to be cork/tan. Other than that, I'm all out.

Again, great observations. You clearly know 356s. I have alot of work to get it right. For now, just drive.

My favorite 356 I ever had was a '63 B Normal that had a "worn" body, but great mechanicals and I drove it EVERYWHERE and parked it ANYWHERE. I can't do that with any other of my cars, which all require being parked in the farthest parking spot, and for some destinations not taken at all. So, I say "for now, and forever, just drive" the thing and enjoy it for the full driving pleasure it brings.
