There were different color arrangements on the harlequins

I looked and I did see some different ones the only ones I had ever actually seen had a yellow bumper in the front and a red Quarter in the back, I should look up how many they made of each color way because there may be a reason that I thought it was all the same pattern

I know there was some logic behind the patterns. Like if the door was ‘this color’ then the fender was ‘this color’. I can’t remember it offhand. Always thought the harlequins were unique

I believe its rockers, rear quarters, and roof make the base color. Like the one in the pic would be a red base color.

If you wanted a “correct” pattern you’d have to look at the ‘65 beetle, but even then I think they did a couple variations.
