The first picture is a late C1. Looks like '61 or '62.

The chrome bumpered C3s of course. The most beautiful rear end in all of automotive history.

Why not edit it and put one of my two pics in before everybody gets up tomorrow and it will give it a better chance of your question being accurate as there really is no difference between your C1 and C2?

The 63 coupe shown above is not 100% correct as it has a license plate frame for a European license plate.
